Re: chevy trailblazer ac problems

Sounds like your compressor is seizing. Higher rpm engine has more power to turn it. If this is the case you need to fix it or you will kill the belt and cause damage.

Re: chevy trailblazer ac problems

I was unable to find any kind of troubleshooting information to send your way, but if you decide to work with a dealership or want me to check in to warranty/recall information for you, please don't hesitate to get in touch via private message (include the last 8 of your VIN).
All the best,

I don't know why the fan would stall it. I would assume its the compressor. It will get worse also. It will also happen if you use defrost so you know ahead of time.

Keep us posted on it though.
