Hey, new here. My Zoe heater stopped working recently. The aircon still works fine and is extremely cold. The system was regassed recently. And ideas why the cold would work but not the hot?
The Zoe uses the new 1234yf AC gas and it is a lot more expensive than the previous gas. A re-gas can cost the best part of £200 did you pay around that amount?
Halfords can only regas, not diagnose or fix a/c faults.
You will need a Renault Garage or HEVRA Garage such as Cleevely EV to actually diagnose & fix this as you have said you have done all the basic checks including hair dyer on
Thanks yes fair enough, I will be taking it to Renault, I'm just trying to get a sense of what's wrong in advance as they don't seem to have the slightest clue about EVs. Halfords was just to do a regas, at that point I just thought the gas was low. Appreciate all your help!
Yes the heating worked fine before the regas. I took it for regas because the aircon had stopped being cold. They said the gas level was not that low and topped it up. After that the cold worked but not the hot.
Hi, I've tried all those things on that list, read loads on Google already. Basically the air coming out of the vent is outside air temperature, slightly warmer but only slightly. I have the temperature set on max. Eco mode not on, I did the hairdryer test didn't make any difference. If I press air con off button it makes no difference. I've tried preheat it's just the same just blows outside air at full fan.
It used to work perfectly then since the regas it has only worked on cold.

Did Heat work OK BEFORE the Regas?
What is the Ambient Temperature and What is the Air Vent Temperature?
You don't have ECO mode selected do you?
