Hey folks,
98 3.0 v-6 5 speed.....Just fired up the AC for the first time this year and only hot air. Popped the hood and noticed that the AC clutch will click on, spin for a second or 2, then click off...and every 15 seconds or so repeats this. AC was fine last time I used it last summer. Does anyone have an idea of what may be the cause, and therefore cheaper and easier fix for me. I know that it is usually from either, low pressure on the freon, bad wiring or relay, or a shot compressor/clutch. Wanted to get an opinion so maybe I can test myself before I take it in and drop cash that I don't have. A side note, i have been having some minor electrical issues lately that may or may not be related. Dome light/door ajar light stays on occasionally, relay clicking in dash when I hit bottom of driver side window down (this may be normal, but i have never noticed before recently) Any ideas? Thanks in advance, I always get great help from this forum.
