Cadillac Repair: Air conditioner, diagnostic chart, front wheel drive


Question
Hi, I have a 1989 Sedan deville 4.5 v8 front wheel drive. The diagnostic display showed two nunbers F-11 and F-49. i did clear these and they have not come back YET. What do these numbers indicate. Problem im having is getting the ac compressor to engage. Thank You

Answer
F11 = AC high side temp circuit problem.

F49 = High temp clutch disengaged (AC clutch.

You will need PICTURES and a simple diagnostic chart to fix the problem. E-mail me at: onlineautohelp@msn.com

You can try replacing the high side temp sensor. Once it is replaced, CLEAR (erase) the codes from the computer BEFORE starting the car and trying the AC.
