Thanks for the quick response. Where is the pressure switch located, and how can I check it? Any specific tools needed?

Honestly, I didn't check it myself. Messing with the A/C system can be tricky because of the refrigerant. I took mine to a workshop, and they sorted it out pretty quickly. Saved me a lot of hassle and potential problems. They have the right tools to diagnose it correctly. Probably a good idea for you, too.

OK, thanks for the advice. I took it to a workshop, and it turned out to be an undervoltage issue, like I suspected. They fixed it for 240€. Appreciate the help!

I had a similar problem with my SM3. If the A/C system doesn't switch on and there's an error stored, it could be a few things. The A/C compressor itself might be faulty, or maybe it's just the pressure switch acting up. The pressure switch is a safety device that prevents the A/C compressor from running if the refrigerant pressure is too low or too high. Have you checked the pressure switch or the pressure sensor?
