Exclamation Everybody do this next time you're in your SVX

Hello all,

As I have discussed with some of you I am preparing a list of the most common SVX failures in a so that early next year I can release my prototype SVX WN "tech bulletins" to address some of our issues with the cars.

I would like to include a section on the air conditioner system and I want to get a feel of how many Evaporator and refrigerant temp sensors are going/been replaced. I want to know if this is a regional issue or not.

Simply run the A/C diagnostic (by holding auto and off, then switch ignition to on) and report your codes back, if you wouldn't mind. Those who have "00" or code 13, thanks for your time but no response is needed, as this is a normally operating system.

Please provide the code number being output, and also please reply if you have replaced either of these sensors.

The "hot" codes I am looking for are 15, 25, 14,24.

Thanks and happy cooling.

-Nifty

Thought I would move this up a bit for you in case someone missed it that might could help.

I did this today and came up with a 13. So looks like I'm in the clear.
