Good shout on the refrigerant pressure! I did check it, and it seems okay, it did not seem like a leak. But how similar was your issue, really? Did yours also refuse to switch on entirely, like mine?

Yeah, mine wouldn't switch on at all. Compressor dead as a doornail. Honestly, based on your symptoms and the fact you've already checked the pressure, I'd bite the bullet and take it to a workshop that knows hybrids. They'll be able to properly diagnose the AC control unit and compressor.

Thanks for confirming that. I took it to a trusted mechanic. Turns out my air conditioning control unit was indeed defective, leading to compressor failure, just like you suspected. The repair set me back 980€, but at least I have ice-cold air again! Appreciate the help.

Interesting. I had a very similar issue with my CT200h – though I can't remember the exact error code. AC just quit. Did you happen to check the refrigerant pressure? Is it possible you have a leak somewhere?
