Hi, our Ford Futura Airconditioning stops and starts, it runs for about 10 minutes at a time, gets really cold and then stops working and then comes back on again in about 10 min time. We live in the tropics. It has been doing this for months, could it be a leak?

Hi there,

check that the A/C cooling fan is coming on with the A/C, get a system pressure test done as well as this is the best pace to start diagnosing this problem, check the fans first.
