How did you hook up the inline fuse to compressor and ground to compress ? Ground what ? Right at the clutch coil ? You have to be hooking it up wrong . The compressor can't cause the clutch coil to short or blow the fuse , even if the compressor were seized up . An before that would have the serpentine belt would burn up , squealing noise. applying B+ voltage in the relay socket ,pin 30 to pin 87 will engage the compressor clutch . If the fuse blows the wiring from the relay to the compressor clutch is shorted to ground . Look for rubbed through wiring harness .
If the fuse blows, unplug the compressor wire to the clutch and replace the fuse and try again. If the fuse doesn't blow, the compressor is the problem. If the fuse blows suspect a direct short in the wiring from the relay to the compressor
Possible direct short in compressor clutch. Disconnect wiring harness from compressor and then turn AC on> If fuse doesn't blow, then problem is in compressor/clutch. Suspect it to be seized. If fuse blows while compressor disconnected then problem in wiring.
is your blower motor running what amp fuse are you using check for a wire shorted at the compressor by the clutch this is the part mounted on the compressor that engages it the compressor could be bad causing the clutch to overload creating a short unplug the connection to the clutch and see if the fuse still blows this would confirm if its a wire or the compressor
Fuse blown therefore no power to compressor. With the vehicle off try to turn the compressor clutch (the part in front of the a/c compressor pulley) just to ensure it is not locked up if it is it would draw more amperage which would result in a blown fuse. If locked up it will require replacement.
CHECK AC COMPRESSOR CLUTCH COIL WIRE CONNECTOR HOOK UP.IF AC COMPRESSOR CLUTCH COIL WIRE CONNECTOR HOOK UP WRONG OR WIRE HAS A SHORT IT WILL BLOW THE ECM FUSE AND AC COMPRESSOR FUSE.CHECK FUSES AND AC COMPRESSOR WIRES.
I don't think there is a separate fuse for the compressor. If there is no freon in the system to actuate the low pressure switch the compressor won't engage.
