Car repair question? Ask Dave - he’ll do his best to help you figure out what’s wrong with your car & how to get it fixed so it’s running like a new one.

Gene asks:  My 2004 Buick LeSabre Ltd (35000 miles) air conditioner will not start until I give the dash board a firm rap above the controls or go over a good bump in the road. Any ideas? thanks

Gene, install a speed bump in your driveway, just kidding!

It sounds to me like you have a loose connection behind the instrument panel. But first replace the fuse to the AC just in case it is faulty.

You may have a harness connection loose or just the set of wires going to your AC switch. I am sure you can access the switch by removing the radio, but to remove the radio, I really don’t know how difficult that may be.

Your situation is obviously not under the hood so stick to the instrument panel.

Good Luck Gene…

Dave
