Flashing climatronic control panel is usually a sign that the air con has died a death, mine cost me a fortune to try to repair in the end I gave up and just opened the windows.

flashing normally means you have run out of gas & you need a re-gas. About £60 should sort it out.
I have to do mine every 12-18 months

well you learn something new everyday.

I was told when I bought mine it needed re-gassing but £60 seems steep as my local HiQ does it for £40 last time I asked
