Angry astra aircon not working

im trying to sort a fult on a 1999-2000 astra-G air con system
there is loads of pressure in the gas system (its a bit high realy on the low press side) but the compresor is not cuting in.
there is a amber light on the dash that looks like a fan in a header tank that goes out when the AC is on and flickers/flashes a few times when the ac is turned off
all the AC controle lights work on the buttons.

anyone got any info on this? (i have autodata 05) i know there a control unit but does any one know how to get a fult code out of it diy style?
i have a wiring digram
i suspect its some kind of sensor fault stoping it cut in

Default Re: astra aircon not working

turns out that the gas pressure on the low side was to high and to low on the high side (because the pump wasent cuting in so the guy @ lsuk said we will cheak it recharge it for free if it dont work after! £40 if it did
low and bhold he compressor was getting a good feed but the clutch winding was duff
so new compressor needed as it dosn't seem that i can just get the winding
any one know better?
looks like i will have to see if i can get a scrappy one if not!
