Re: repeated condenser failure
Try to find an old Condenser, as they normally last for ever.
If not, try take one of these shitty new condenser and dent it on its sides, this will make the contact inside, and it will work again.
Go to Diesel-Electric and get a Bosch condenser.

My 1400 Nissan has an original (factory) item been on there for about 50000km, have no intention on replacing it.
For what it's worth, ignorance has no limits ......
