2001 model. Okay, so I have no idea what the history of this car is as I just bought it in December but it seems to be alright, runs well and also a local mechanic who has a thing for mitsus told me the car looks great mechanically.
Earlier today the AC was working fine, then I parked it and came back to it about three hours later. Nothing. No heat, no AC, the green light wont even light up when I press the AC. A very small amount of air comes out of the vents no matter if it is on zero or four.
To refresh, I am a woman. Stereotypically, women know nothing about cars, and I'm not much of an exception. I can change my air filter, my battery, and know how to change a tire, although I never have. And I know where my fuse box is. That's about it.
That being said:
What fluids are required for the AC and all that junk to work? In my (really amature) opinion, it would not be any fluids that are low since nothing is coming out at all.
Could it be a fuse? A manual did not come with this car. Should I just check them all?
If it is a fuse, is the only way to figure out if its just a burnt out fuse, or an electrical problem where the fuse will keep going out is if I buy a fuse and see if it goes out?
What if its electrical?
The hells wrong with my car?
