Pressure switch, huh? Whereabouts is that usually located? I did listen for noises, but it’s dead silent, which is weird. So, you think a dodgy pressure switch could stop the whole system from starting up?

On my Saab, the pressure switch was near the condenser, in front of the radiator. But honestly, with no noise at all, and if the fuses are good, it could also be the valves in the AC system itself. They can be a pain. That's what it ended up being on mine and cost a bomb to fix! I'd say get it to a workshop for AC diagnostics.

Right, valves, gotcha. Sounds expensive! I was hoping it was a simple fix. Thanks for the heads-up; I’ll book it in at the garage. Probably going to be looking at around 1000€, if your experience is anything to go by! Cheers!

Dude, I feel your pain! I had the same thing happen with my old Saab. The AC just died. Compressor wouldn't kick in. Have you checked the pressure switch? Or listen closely when you try to turn it on - can you hear any weird noises from the compressor area?
