If your blue A/C light operated before the powerwashing event and now
it doesn't, then you blew a fuse. I would search the obvious fuseboxes
for a low amperage "A/C" or "MG clutch" or "Compressor" fuse. If you
don't find it, look in the left and right kick panel areas for a small
fuse/relay holder. Some Asian systems wire their A/C systems as if
they are an add-on, even if they come with A/C from the factory.
