AC clutch won't engage when temp control is set at max cold and vent control is set to Max AC. Blower provides air at all speeds. Checked fuse in engine compartment - it's OK. Replaced relay with known-to-be-good (horn) relay. Then removed relay and jumpered #3 and #5. Clutch engages and compressor runs, however, after about 5 minutes at 1500 rpm, no cold air. System was working fine until it would not come on. Could it be a sensor that is keeping the clutch from engaging? If so, which one and where is it? Any other ideas would be much appreciated. :help:
Thanks Six Pak. I think you are correct. There are two sensors: the high head pressure sensor (located inline at the compressor output) and the low pressure sensor (located on the cannister). I jumpered the low pressure connector and the clutch immediately engaged. So the system is low on freon. I will have it checked by an A/C pro. Good call Sixer.
