I was reading a thread from June 2012... What was the place in Chicago that fixed the A/C on your Volvo 670? I'm roasting in Laredo!! Please let me know when you can. Thanks.

Check if you have power coming to youre ac compressor check the voltake at the connector you probably have a broke wire feeding the ac clutch and thats y u geeting the fault code it is prely an electrical issue check. What kind of engine do you have. I might be able to point u in the right direction as to where to look at the wires.

Ac wiring is really simple depends in the engine you guys have people make it seem a hell of a lot kore compicated than it really is but thats a food way to charge people i guess.

check if there is freon in the system.most likely there isnt so have your mech put freon and dye in the system cause you have a leak.run the ac for a while and look for the dye thats where the leak is.or multiple leaks.check system pressure high and low.this will give you a hint if the system is leaking or the compressor orking prperly.if all good move on to look fort the leak with a fluoresvcent blue light.check the condensor radiator on the very front,check the hoses and pipes.if not the hose or pipe itself the o-ring seals go bad too or some dealers dont even put o-rings like tec of fontana!@#$& follow the ac lines all the way look for dye.if none found open up the cabin air filter and check the evaporator on the front. then open up the unit in the sleeper passenger side storage compartment black box.if you see no dye move on to the inside of the truck.some dealers dont wanna do this like tec of fontana they only want your money but dont wanna work for it.you go inside and you open up the dashboard pannel and remove the rubber on the floor.here you check the front evaporator again you check the front expansion valve and the thermostat.then you go to the sleeper and you open up the plastic panels on to check the rear evaporator and rear expansion valve.you change all the laeky parts.you clean all the good parts nicely you change ALL the o-rings you put everything together fill up with freon properly and your ac is gonna run like you CRAZY.if no one is willing to do all this for you i know a tiny shop in chicago that will.they started at 9am finished at 2am but the truck is like it came out of the factory everything is back in place like it should be no extra unnecesery parts at the end like at the dealer and LIFETIME WARRANTY.he said you wont have any ac problems with this truck anymore .And after driving without ac for a month boiling in texas on 120 degrees.still charged me less then volvo tec of fontana who are apsolute amateurs when it comes to repairing volvo trucks.anyway good luck man i hope you have a simple and inexpensive problem

I think I might be having the same issue with my A/C the voltage to the compressor is 4.4 volts, I check the fuses as well as the level (bought one of those wally world ac kits) and it is in the green zone on the low side, dont have a gauge for the high side. it is getting really hot and I would like to get it fixed asap. any ideas?
