V60 AC compressor failure
Summary of the thread
A 2014 Volvo V60 diesel experienced a failure in its air conditioning system, blowing warm air and displaying an error code related to the AC compressor. The issue was constant, not intermittent. After checking the fuses, which were fine, a potential cause was identified as undervoltage due to a faulty belt tensioner. Replacing the belt tensioner resolved the problem, restoring the air conditioning to proper function.

It's constant, unfortunately. It doesn't work at all now. It was working fine one day and then just completely stopped the next. Could it be something like the belt tensioner or a faulty pressure sensor?

In my case, it was the belt tensioner. This undervoltage caused the shut off of the ac compressor. Considering your symptoms, I highly recommend taking it to a qualified workshop for diagnostics and repair to avoid further damage to the HVAC system.

Thanks for the advice. I took it to a mechanic, and you were right. It was undervoltage causing the AC compressor to shut off. They replaced the belt tensioner and it cost me 240€. The A/C is working perfectly now.

I had a similar problem with my V60. The air conditioning would just randomly cut out. Does it happen constantly, or is it intermittent?
