My a/c will work for about 15min and then quit, when it works it blows ice cold, and from what i can see there is no frezzing on any componets.
Clutch is probably shot. Turn on the A/C and when it stops getting cold look at see if the clutch is still engaged.
I had that problem and it turned out to be the switch located on the drier had died. I replaced the switch and things were perfect again. The switch was really cheap might be worth replacing if you never have before, although I know people hate throwing parts at problems...
I got the same problem... how do you tell if the clutch is engaged?
I just reread the instructions and I think I get it now. Is this right?
1) Unplug harness.
2) Check across the terminals on the switch to see if it is open or closed (using ohmmeter).
3) If it is open, I should use a jump wire across the two terminals on the harness side to trick the system into kicking on the compressor.
4) Once the compressor is running, check the pressures to make sure they are in operating range.
