Okay guys, I have beat my head against the wall with this one. I just plain old don't enough about this AC system to troubleshoot it right I guess. My manual doesn't have my year (1998) ac control diagram which doesn't help!
Last summer I had to replace the pulley/bearing on the AC compressor. No problem. AC worked fine before and after. Then toward the end of Summer the ac stopped working. No cool air at all. The new pulley came with a new coil for the compressor that I didn't install because I was being lazy. So of course I waited until it gets hot again to fix, thinking it was probably the coil. I replaced the coil (the old one looked pretty ragged) and still the compressor won't turn on when in AC mode!
The details:
All fuses check fine.
When I have the XJ running in AC mode I don't get any voltage at the connector for the compressor.
When I take out the little relay out of the box and put it back in, I hear it clicking 'on' so I know it works.
Could I just need a AC charge?
Thanks for the help!
