    Thanks for this video, I didn't have access to any of the tools you used, but as it was the cheapest and easiest part to replace to fix my C7 A6 A/C issue, I rolled the dice and swapped out the pressure sensor. It worked like a charm!

  • @billrimmer5596
    @billrimmer5596 Před 5 lety +2

    Great vid. I recently had a Matrix with a system like that. Compressor has no clutch. Runs all the time. The solenoid valve turns the thing on hydraulically and away we go. Nice to c the PWM signal to the compressor from ECM or Hvac, whichever. I think ECM. Really interesting was sensor in the hiside tube was communicating with info packets. So it’s a little module. Our cars today have so many of these little modules that were gonna have to name them like kids. I think that Audi has about 25 kids. The fix on the Matrix was a reman compressor. The drive in the front had gone “hasta la vista”. Remember the old Westerns where the good guy had two six guns holstered and ready? That’s Mario with his scope, scan tool and red beeping gizmo.

    I have an audi A5 3.0tdi 09 plate withan aircon issue. Its been in and out of garages who are unsure what it is or too scared of the work it may involve. Everything mechanically has been checked and or replaced (a tool was connected to the commpressor sending the correct signal through and it worked peefectly blowing ice cold air out) the only fault code is "implausible signal AC" "00898". The pressure sensor hss been checked and replaced, commpressor replaced, ac head unit replaced. Any other ideas what could be wrong with it?

  • @spelunkerd
    @spelunkerd Před 4 lety +2

    Wow, even individual sensors communicate on the bus. I wish there was a way to recognize bus signals that come from the component you're interested in. As it is, the scope sees all the chatter.

    • @SuperMarioDiagnostics
      @SuperMarioDiagnostics  Před 4 lety

      We're quite a long ways away from automotive manufacturers handing over any proprietary information in which we could decode the waveform. Some have gone as far as to power certain modules, isolated from the bus, and noting the identifier, to then locate them later in a decoded bus waveform. Some have successfully pinpointed which node is talking by bidirectionally commanding a function from a particular module.
      I've done neither of these since it's a bit above my head 😆
      Would love to see the day when manufacturers do release this information.
      Chris Groff from science of diagnostics was the only guy that I saw that was able to make a successful diagnosis due to serial decoding.
      I've also heard of cases where decoding is useful to find a babbling module with a dominant level message, causing all of the recessive level messages to go unheeded, thus "crashing" the network.
      Thanks for watching!

  • @ryanmacewen511
    @ryanmacewen511 Před 3 lety

    Liked and Subscribed! Awesome video. Is the sensor in this case sensing the low side, or the high side? After repair it was reading 127psi. I am a home gamer, and I've been fighting with no AC on my 2008 A6. The most I was able to fill low side to, was about 63psi on manifold gauge. I was unable to get compressor to cycle on while filling. The only error I got through VCDS scanning was refrigerant pressure too high. I was able to get compressor to cycle on by previously applying compressed air to center port on manifold. It was about 30-50 psi higher than the low side. I was also able to get compressor to cycle on using a duty cycle test in VCDS. The off code for compressor was 1. (Refrigeration pressure too high). I'd clear this code, and try again, until I gave up and decided to research more. Seems difficult just to get information. Do I need to get a module tool to cycle compressor on, just to fill system, or test compressors ability to function, without car interfering? Sry long post.

  • @andrewk778
    @andrewk778 Před 6 lety +2

    I did not know the power to the clutch was PWM. Is that to control compressor speed irrelevant of engine speed? Thanks for sharing.

    • @SuperMarioDiagnostics
      @SuperMarioDiagnostics  Před 6 lety +3

      Andrew K actually there is no clutch. The variable displacement compressor is rotating along with the engine, and the PWM signal controls the pressure of the compressor, depending on the request. This is why you will not hear the operation of a clutch in these systems. I do apologize if i said clutch. There is no clutch, i said clutch in the video but i did correct myself, sorry about that

    @AppalachianDIY Před 5 lety

    Is 55*F vent temp normal for a 100 degree day in FL? I'm used to seeing mid to low 40s in Texas. The reason I'm asking is I'm working on a 2010 focus that will not get below about 55 vent temp. Pressures look ok for 100*F ambient. 230 ish on the high side, and about 40 on the low. It came in with a dead compressor and a leaking evaporator core. We sold the whole kit with expansion valve and dryer, as well as the leaking evaporator. Afterwards, pressures look ok, but inadequate cooling. Any ideas? Any related experience with this vintage focus? Thanks Mario. Great videos

    • @SuperMarioDiagnostics
      @SuperMarioDiagnostics  Před 5 lety

      To have the exact spec one would have to look at the performance test the is in service info, following their instructions. Also if you didn't change the condenser also, it may bite ya, if internal compressor damage took place. Those pressures are not bad, and that vent output temp isn't bad either, there's much more humidity down here that the evaporator has to overcome.

    • @AppalachianDIY
      @AppalachianDIY Před 5 lety

      @@SuperMarioDiagnostics it was 52% humidity when I checked it after the repair, and 100*. We got the condenser in a kit from 1-800 radiator, but they didn't sell it. I checked all the service info I could find on all data. It was all generic and not much help. 55 degree vent temp here is pretty bad, but the humidity has-been high. I do a lot of AC work and never see vent temps that hot after a repair. I would suspect a junk compressor, but with normal head pressures, it's hard to say that's the cause

    I hate going off topic but I have this car and an as yet unsolved problem.
    If the car is in D and from a brake pedal stop is allowed to
    1- creep forward at all without pressing accelerator
    Or
    2- sit without the accelerator being pressed for a time span of maybe 1.5 secs
    When you press the gas the transmission slips like it’s ruined- won’t move vehicle- high revs etc.
    However if you move your foot immediately from holding brake to accelerator the car takes off without any slip every time.
    Is this some faulty rollback function or hold on hill or creep control software problem? Has anyone heard of this 2013 a6?
