Re: Hot Air from AC
He is correct. That would be the "capacitor" mentioned in an earlier post, it is more accurately described as a low pressure cut-off switch. It is there to prevent the compressor from running when there is not enough refridgerant in the system, which would quickly destroy the compressor.
If everything works ok, you can just purchase this switch and change it yourself, there is NO NEED to discharge the A/C to replace it. There is a small "schrader valve" where it screws in that seals the system off as you remove it.
You could also really have low charge, or even a blown fuse/disconnected A/C clutch coil. They would all result in the same symptoms.
