T350 Air Conditioning

[Lone Star]

For those of you that have air conditioning in your T350 ( and for that matter, those that don't. ) Apart from the fact that when its working, you would ideally have cool air coming out the vents. What indication inside the vehicle of any sort is there to say that there is air conditioning?

Blue light turns on near the control switch?

[Lone Star]

I know this is a very numpty response. But would I be right in saying then; that there would be no blue light if there wasn't a/c fitted in the car?

[ShiDevil]

I believe so. I'll take photo of mine and post here, then we can see a photo of one without

The blue light will come on whether you have A/C or not. I don't have A/C and when I press the button the light comes on.

Same here, blue light works but I don't have air con.

Have a look if you have an air con pump attached to the engine.....

That would be the better check.

Furthermore queck your dash menue if aircon is activated "on" or not "off".

Finally aircon must have been programmed in your dash ECU as well, Paul Smith ( ps electronic solutions) told me.

All cars have the blue light. On cars with air con if you listen carefully when you turn it on you can hear a slight clonk as the compressor starts up.
Otherwise look under the bonnet and it should be reasonably obvious

Also worth checking the flap settings - as per VarleyHYD's superb manual. I actually find the aircon in the T350 to be utterly brilliant, its cooler than our BMW and massively more powerful than older TVR systems. Very pleasantly surprised!

Graham, I'm quite surprised you have a/c. Do you use it or is it just extra weight under the bonnet?

Hi,

Mmm, Just went out in my T350.

You obviously have the hot and cold dial then you have the fan dial. The fan works without pushing a button. When you press on the hot and cold dial i'm sure it activates the aircon, as i can hear a click in the engine area, then the blue light beneath it turns on. Maybe the fact it clicks in the engine bay indicates you have aircon?



These are funny old cars :P
