I am sure this is something most of you have had a problem with.


For the past week my ac has been acting crazy...shutting on and off, barely blowing, etc.. I have been on the move to figure out whats wrong, need some opinions.

Now when i turn it on i can def. hear the compressor kick on and shut off when i turn it off, so HOPEFULLY that's not the problem.

I have checked both the fuses and they are good.

So i have come to these conclusions i either:

Have a bad electrical connection somewhere down there.

or the switch has gone out, i took it somewhere and we took the panel under the passenger seat off (you know right where the ac is blower/motor is) and the motor would come on and off when it wanted or if i kinda moved it..

Do you guys think it might just be a switch?

When it does blow it's really cold, so i dont think it's low on freon..

Has anyone had the same problem?

I really dont want to replace the entire blower motor, cause things hardly ever go out.

 

sounds like a bad electrical connection to me, but other then that I have no idea, I know nothing about A/C

 

It may still be low on coolant. Even though it blows cold if there is not enough pressure in the system the compressor will cycle like that. Could also be a bad low pressure switch.

 

if its the blower motor itself turning on and off by , sounds like your blower motor resistor might be going bad/and more than likely the resistor connector is melted as well @ the resistor

 

I had this problem.....

Check the resistor on the blower motor.... i think you will need a 5mm or 6mm socket?? its small

 

its a 5.5mm or I think a 7/32 works too

 

FYI, That is normal operation. It runs the A/C during defrost to help remove mosture and lube the A/C compressor during the "off season"

Is the fan not blowing or the a/c not getting cold?

 

sometimes it will blow barely, and then when i get on the highway or something itll blow like crazy for about 10 seconds and then shut itself off.
