Question air conditioner

if the a/c went on my car and it is still blowing air, but not cold air - could it be the compressor or a fuse...?

just sounds to me that you need it recharged possibly you have a leak or used it up.

Re: air conditioner

Check the fuse marked HEIGO and the fuse marked wiper (AC clutch ). On the left side (as you are looking at it) of the engine compartment is the receiver/dryer (small metal tank). Around the top of the tank there is the low pressure switch with 2 wires going into it. Pull the electral plug and jump the wires with a paper clip or wire with the engine running and the AC controls on. If the clutch starts turning it is a low refrigerant problem. You need to take it to a shop where they have the equipment to recharge it and find the leak. What a lousy time of the year to lose your airconditioning.
