    AC pressure switch/No voltage

    FYI I had replaced my compressor (locked up) and I did a few hours of troubleshooting. I should have listened to someone who had told me to check the FUSES. Mine is running like a champ now.

    Leaks

    I used an air compressor with one of the little tips that is rubber so it would mate with the drain tube. I added a few cups of water to the tray so that I could see if it was working. I put air to it and held it there for a moment. Pulled the nozzle away from the drain tube and it made a...

    Is my new compressor bad from the part store Low/High same pressure

    To close this thread, the AC is now working. I though I had checked the fuse but it was blown. Everything appears to be working and I have cold AC now. Thanks to everyone who has such great help! To recap. A bearing in the pulley for the compressor locked up and destroyed the serpentine belt...

    Is my new compressor bad from the part store Low/High same pressure

    Sorry for the delay. It has been a really long couple of weeks. I have the switch jumpered. It has 12VDC on one side so I have voltage there. I have measured voltage at the compressor and I have .2VDC so I would guess that is just noise. The compressor has 4 ohms across the pins so I think...

    Is my new compressor bad from the part store Low/High same pressure

    I have not checked fuses. I will do that tonight if I am able. I was able to find the low pressure switch. It has 12VDC on the one wire. I jumpered it and still have no engagement of the clutch.

    Is my new compressor bad from the part store Low/High same pressure

    I added 3 more oz. It came with 3 already. I will check low pressure switch. Is that by the condensor?

    Is my new compressor bad from the part store Low/High same pressure

    The new compressor is not running. The electrical connection is connected. Once the low side has enough pressure the compressor should turn on, correct? It should be 12 V at the connector?

    Is my new compressor bad from the part store Low/High same pressure

    Friday while driving down the road I had a squeal and a shutdown of the engine. The compressor bearing had locked up and shredded the serpentine belt. After a tow to the house I replaced the belt and the compressor (another nightmare) and she ran like a top. I did the tow errand that I needed...

    Yellow lubricant from drivers front wheel

    Good Day everyone! My AC quit working over the winter. When I turned it on I started leaking a yellow fliud. I am guessing that it is the compressor oil for the AC. I grabbed a can of the 134a refill and started to fill the system. The compressor kicked and and things started to work...
