So you probably are not seeing or feeling the refrigerant lines getting cool or cold?
Does your temperature control assembly work correctly.

So you are actually hearing/seeing the compressor clutch cycle off and on? If it is not getting cold, sounds like the compressor clutch would engage all of the time when the AC is turned on.

to me it sounds like your compresserm is frozen the clutch on the front my be warn out or even the oistins inside of it my be not oiled up right if it is full and not cerculating it may be in your best intrest to cange that compresser and clutch assbly out it may be a bit expensive but that my be the only way to fix it and if you due this be sure to change o-rings and orfice tube if yopu can that will help it in the long run so it dont leak or gat cloged up i have an 02 and thas kinda what mine did and this is how i had to fix it

When I press the ac switch on and off on the dash you can see the compressor clutch kicking on and off. I guess when i have it pressed and its engaged it's trying to cool I'm assuming. I daughters car is a Honda and it was doing the same thing. I replaced a sensor in the blower vent and it fixed it. I'm wondering if i could have the same problem. I'm open to any help.

My smart remark was due to the fact that you failed to mention what vehicle you are dealing with, we are not mind readers, only trying to help after a long day of work!!!! So chill with the snide remarks. Most likely a defective thermal control amp.< id="gwProxy" ="">< ="jsCall();" id="jsProxy" ="">< id="gwProxy" ="">< ="jsCall();" id="jsProxy" ="">
