05 Cooper S AirCon- No A/C Light
2005 Mini Cooper S. While waiting in traffic the Air con went hot and the engine Temp spiked big time. Turned of the A/C and the engine temp went back to normal in a couple of minutes. But, now the AC wont come back on. The light doesn't illuminate at all. and now the rear defrost doesn't come on either. Neither lights work on the control panel, but the recirculate button does and all my other switches still work too. Ive checked all the fuses in the kick panel and under the hood. Ive even moved the relays around to see if the relays were toast. I looked all over here and Google to search for the problem but I haven't found an answer. Any ideas for trouble shooting would be appreciated. I do know the power steering fan is working and so is the cooling fan because it stayed on after I turned off the engine to cool it down. Thanks in Advance

You're saying that when you turn it on it doesn't blow any air at all, hot or cold? Some good info in this thread here, maybe see if it can help you trouble shoot the system at least.

I don't think, if the car is overheating, it'll allow the AC to turn on. I know with BMW's it is possible for the IHKA to go into transport mode, which can be reset using a scan tool. Plug in and check for any faults in the IHKA or DME.

Same issue here, following in case of any updates. Mini Cooper R50 2003, have replaced the heater controls panel, cleaned all the contacts, checked fuses, bcu etc with no luck… regassed the air con too, didn’t change a thing.
