My wife's X5 AC just quit working suddenly and I'm getting these 2 codes from BMW Carly app 80436E Compressor clutch open circuit or short circuit to positive and code 804370 compressor valve open circuit or short circuit to positive, as long as I know the F15 don't have any relays, so what should I do now? I just disconnected both batteries from the vehicle to reset the whole system and the ac compressor just worked right for about 2 minutes blowing really cold air as usual and then died again with these 2 codes, do you think that the coil and/or clutch is going bad? Will I need to replace the whole ac compressor? What do you recommend guys?

If pressure is good (assuming there's no leak in the system) - then next step is to check compressor (I doubt it's faulty if you are saying you had ice cold air for 2 min). But worst case scenario it's about $480 for a new a/c compressor: https://www.fcpeuro.com/products/bmw...so-64529217868 I would let HVAC shop diagnose it - this is something I would not do as DIY unless you have experience in HVAC. Having ISTA+ would be a plus - as it explains a lot of stuff unlike Carly. Last edited by DuSh; 02-21-2019 at 04:32 PM.. |

If you'll get to the bottom of that, please let us know what was wrong.

Hey man, I'm not the one who is savvy with ISTA+ but here's some download links (it's a challenge by itself to properly download and install everything to make it work, but IMHO it's worth it):
https://mega.nz/#F!dAxihCja!0JoWxVXavz6Exwgvp6fyLA Then there is couple torrent links, but I never tried them, so not sure if they work or not (one is from Matte Provenzale - a n63 Facebook club creator and the other is from Russian torrent website - it's huge file size I think >200Gb, it says instruction and how to is in folder Tools>FAQ-EN.pdf) : https://ufile.io/xs105 and https://ufile.io/17mro (links are active for 30 days only). There are also couple other websites that I don't remember lol. Hopefully others will chime in. |

Update
A little update on this issue:
Just went to the AC expert and they connected the AC machine to the vehicle, the machine just detected low refrigerant on the system, like half pound less than the vehicle's specification, the machine just evacuated the whole system, then provided the exact amount of refrigerant to the vehicle and the ac compressor is working as expected, unfortunately we have a cold weather now here at my location, I'll need to wait for the hot weather to come back and fully test the system, hope this will be the remedy for this issue. I hope !

So you're not interested to find out where the refrigerant went missing?
By the way, there is a mixture of refrigerant and oil that should be pumped into the system. |

We will find out where the refrigerant is going and the system has been filled with the right amount of R134a and compressor oil by an AC computer controlled machine.

The X5 is at the AC shop, the ac compressor is being replaced along with the disecant element at the condenser, all the rubber gaskets and the expansion valve, will inform you after all the work on the X5 AC system is done.
