Ok I'm confused here and would like some insight on this.
First off I have turned the AC on a few days ago and it was ice cold, fast forward to today (85 degrees outside) I start the truck up and turn the AC on to cool the interior down before I leave work, I left it running for 5 minutes and when I came back to it there was a very strong burning smell like that of burning plastic or rubber. I popped the hood open and noticed the AC clutch is semi engaging then it stopped all together. I shut off the AC which was now blowing hot air and the smell disappeared, I drove home and on the way I turned the AC on again but this time no smell, but still hot air though.
So I get home and I plug the gauge to the low side and it reads 125 PSI, this number does not change regardless of truck is on, AC on full blast, truck on AC off or truck off AC off, it still reads 125 PSI. If I press the trigger on the gauge it drops to 0 PSI and blows a very faint amount of oil maybe refrigerant hard to tell cause of how minimal it is.
So now I'm at a clueless point do I relieve pressure on the high side or what??
When it ran normally before it didn't act unusual or anything, it worked as it should
Matter of fact when I started the truck earlier the AC ran before I went back inside work,
