I live up in northern california and the temperatures are hovering around 100 and driving a half hour to work each way is miserable!
About two years ago I bought a can of A/C Pro and my stupid ass put it in the high pressure side as I remember and not too long after that my compressor stopped running when i switched on my ac, which at the time I didn't realize my mistake.
Now I am trying to get it working again since I'm tired of not having ac. I jumped the compressor straight from the battery and it turned on without a problem but no cold air. Then i removed the ac relay and used a paper clip to bridge the pins so the compressor would come on and let it run for about 15 minutes but the air coming from the vents was just as hot outside.
So I wanted to rack some peoples brains about a solution to my problem since I know quite a bit about how to fix everything else on my truck but the ac. Could it be my high or low pressure switch? Could it be that I'm low on R-134? Any info helps!
Thanks everyone!
