The pressure means nothing as far as the state of charge. You need to have the system completely evacuated and recharged with the specific charge weight for that vehicle. Only then can the pressures or anything else mean anything.
So, Are you saying that when the gauges are connected to the high and low pressure ports, that it doesn't matter what they say, We have to take all the Freon out and start over, in order to determine why it's blowing hot air?
Yes, that's what I 'm saying. the pressure don't mean anything at all unless the system has the exact required weight of refrigerant in the system. All diagnostice have to start with an evacuate and recharge and then analyze the pressure readings.

I apologize if my question seems stupid. I am trying to save money by looking up the solution for my problem. When the compressor was jumped, or what I call hotwired, the system blows ice cold air. So, the freon psi seems normal. What is keeping the compressor clutch form kicking in and blowing cold air when the compressor is not jumped?
Switches, fuses, wiring, relays etc. Could be anything in the circuit and it has to be systematically troubleshoorted using a wiring diagram and a test light.
It's not fuses, or relays. So, that leaves Switches and wiring.
Or it's low on freon. Thanks for your help, We still don't know what's wrong, yet we know we are going in the right direction. (probably to a professional)
