85 745 A/C Q 700 1985

posted by  someone claiming to be VA745 on  Wed Apr 2 11:38 CST 2003 [RELATED]

Hello -

I just noticed the compressor is not coming on when the slider control is set to A/C. The car was converted to R-134 several years ago.
The fuse seems to be ok because the A/C fuse also controls the fan, which is working.

I do not see a A/C relay illustrated in the relay tray chart.

Are there other relays or fuses that I can check ?
I am going to check the wires around the compressor in a few minutes.

Thanks for any tips,

Alan

    Check the Freon charge; if it's low, the compressor won't come on.

      Everything's back to normal after discovering a wire connector that had pulled apart near the firewall...Whew, was having nightmares about having to visit a bubba A/C shop and getting the runaround about a leaking system.

      Thanks for the reply.
