Air conditioning problem on a Citroen DS5 after engine change

Hello everyone, I own a 2012 Citroen DS5 with a diesel engine and 100,000 km on the odometer. I recently replaced the engine with a DV6 and installed a 406 capacitor. Since then, the air conditioning only blows hot air and only works correctly three days after the change. Has anyone ever encountered this problem or have an idea of the cause? Thanks in advance for your help!

After replacing the engine in a 2012 Citroen DS5 with a DV6 and installing a 406 capacitor, the air conditioning system only blows hot air and functions correctly three days post-change. Possible causes could include issues with the new capacitor, incorrect installation, or a problem with the AC system's calibration. Suggested solutions involve checking the capacitor's compatibility, ensuring proper installation, and possibly recalibrating the AC system.

Why does the AC in my DS5 only work 3 days after I changed the engine and installed a DV6 engine and a 406 condenser?

Check if the AC system was properly recharged with refrigerant after the engine and condenser replacement. An insufficient refrigerant level can cause the AC to blow hot air. If the refrigerant level is fine, inspect the AC compressor and its connections for any issues. Let me know how it goes or if you have any further questions!
