When I press the AC button on the dash, the button light does not come on, and the compressor does not engage. It uses the old R12.

Hi there,

Possibly you are low on refrigerant, get this checked first, you will have to get the system retro fitted with the up grade to R 134a refrigerant as you will not be able to use R12 again.
