A/C Compressor not working

1997 Grand Am
3.1L V6

OK, my A/C use to work, then when it would blow a fuse whenever I tried to use the A/C. I heard something about the compressors on these cars shorting out because of the wiring. Can anyone tell me what exactly I should look for in the wiring? Or can anyone please tell me how to explain this problem to my mechanic?

Thanks All

Re: A/C Compressor not working

Thier's a plug on the comp and the wires coming from it can rub the engine, or from heat and vibrations, the wires break and short out or just not make connections.
Pretty hard to see unless you get under the car or on a lift.

You did check the relay ?

Good Hunting
