If your system is short on gas, then the compressor won't trip in.
This has got to be the first part of your investigation.....A/C specialists will regas the system, adding some ultra violet dye for good measure. This shows up beautifully if there are leaks afterwards.

kwikfit do re-gassing and you don't pay it they don't lower the temp by 10%.. so if the pump is screwed and not just no gas then you won't have to pay

Wasn't aware of that...seems the place to go!
