Strange all were ok tried the air con again and it worked.

Maybe one of them was not making a connection.

you might find your low on gas and the aircon is cutting out. Mine was doing this every other day, regassed and it was fine

Most likely to be low gas. The system has two protection systems in it to stop it self imploding/exploding.

The unions have a habit of leaking as the main one is right next to the turbo and hence often dries out/leaks.

Get it compression tested for leaks, get all joints tightened and regassed.

Finally, aircon gas even on things like BMs only lasts 2 years or so, but the Noble service, unlike BMWs et. all, doesn't have leak testing/gassing as part of the service schedule, and so this quite often happens.

Mine blew a couple of months back (I thought) due to the droplets that form in the footwell on those pipes above the fuse box. Thought it was quite ironic that the aircon system can blow its own fuses in this way. New fuse and it worked fine, this weekend it doesn't work at all.

Maybe mine blew due to needing a regas and this was an initial sign. Thanks for the info. Learning a lot this morning.

Thanks Guys,

Still working fine, so I'll keep an eye on it.
Can anyone compression test it?

Yep, any decent air-con place can do it. There is a sight glass on the accumulator which means anyone can refill it that's compentent.
