Good afternoon folks.

Some nice weather today, which must be because I've removed my aircon compressor pump!

As part of my planned maintenance I began removing the aircon system from the car. So far I have removed the pump and fitted a shorter fan belt and grooved tensioner pulley, and cut back the pipework below. I plan to gradually remove the rest of the pipework and the chiller unit/condenser etc over my limited free time.

My question is this... Is there any sensors/electrical connections/fuses I sould remove at this stage to completely isolate the system?

I've had a look on the guide for the 165's on GTFOURS.CO.UK, and it mentions issues with the radiator fan running continuously.

Cheers again!

On the ST185 you need to keep the sensor from the A/C line up near the diagnostic port. Don't know on the 205 if its needed.
