Did you check the relay to see if it is getting power and ground ?
Is the high pressure switch working correctly ?
The low pressure switch opens when the pressure drops below 20psi, and the high switch opens when the pressure is above 300psi.

SOURCE: dash lights, dome lights and stereo quit workign when installing

YOU HOOKED THE GROUND FOR THE RADIO TO THE WIRE FOR RADIO LIGHT FROM THE FACTORY UNIT. THAT WIRE IS DRAK BROWN AND WILL SHOW AS A GROUND UNTIL YOU TURN ON THE LIGHTS. YOUR FUSE FOR PARKING LIGHTS WILL ALSO BE BLOWN. I DID THIS AND FIXED IT ALSO.

Why doesn't A/C compressor work?

If there is an issue with the pressure in the system, the ECU will not allow the compressor to run.
Check the coolant high and low pressure point pressures are within specification.

i have 2 questions.
1: is the compressor shaft dropping dead, ? when A/C on?
the shaft actual not the clutch , pulley, its spins near engine speed.
2: no for above , did you check the low side pressure, what is it?

3: pressure is good, is the hi/lo switch open?

4: no, good and good. so we arrive at the AC AMP.
did you check the voltage on all pins.
the AMP drops the AC clutch for up to 6 good reasons.
saving driver from loss of engine power and for protecting the loop reasons.

Ac clutch not kicking on

ADD Freon. It's a R134 system and the pressure is too low. Trust me add Freon and it will work fine. With a low amount of Freon if you jump the low pressure switch at the accumulator it will be very cold but will not have enough pressure to kick on the low pressure switch.

you can run the compressor for a few minutes to see if you get cold air with the low pressure switch crossed out. if you don't have cold air after about 5 minutes then you still have a leak somewhere.

My ac was blowing fine and cold until my ac compressor went out. i bought a used ac compressor wit new dryer/accumulater, and orfice tube. i had that for awhile and i replaced it again because the air...

If the car was retro fitted with R134a this was a common problem. There was a low side pressure sensor that needs to be changed. R134a runs different pressures than the r12.. When you go down the road the condenser cools off the system and the pressure drops below the minimum pressure. You need to make sure that the system is fully charged, not just cold to the feel. Both pipes coming out of the firewall need to be the same temp. this makes sure that the evaporator is flooded.
I hope this helped. Re-post if you need more info. Have a nice day and good luck.
