hi there ... does your climate control actually work when you turn it on
even though the stop light is flashing,?

Wondering if the a/c compressor is shafted, causing loads of strain on the aux belt - would that throw up a 'STOP'?

hi guys and thanks for the responces.
claimate control does turn on, although i think it really need regasing because it doesnt get as cold as a/c should.
i wil look at the cooling fan speed resistors and relay. also do any of you know when pug finished making the d8's coz mine is a 1999 but from what i have read it should be a d9 (ie. d9's came in 1999) but it has the d8 grill and lights.

Yeah changeover year 1999, so it could be either really. There were a few hybrids produced too, some bits D8 and some D9. We know those as D8.5s :P.

If yours has a D8 front then that post I found for you might not work as the D8's have 2 fans whereas the D9 has one multi speed fan. Still worth a look though I suppose.

Does your facia look like this?...

That's how cold the a/c should be too :)
