Ford Galaxy - Air Con failure on Ford Galaxy Ghia - error codes - GDF

I have a flashing climate control display on start up on my 56 reg Galaxy Ghia. While flashing, what I presime is an error code of 88 is displayed in several places. The air con seems to have stopped working although the blowers etc work. I am in France and the language problems will make it difficult to discuss with a French garage. Does anyone know how I can find out if this is an error code and what it means?

A flashing display on the climate panel is indicative of a fault within the system.The flashing 88 is not an error code,just the full segment display.Most common issues with this is lack of refrigerant gas in the system and thus no pressure.Take it to one of the Clima/Norauto service centres.hth
