    Default A/C not working anymore...........help!

    The wife tried to use it yesterday for the first time this year. It was recharged and blowing ice cold last summer, but we haven't had to use it since October.

    When you hit either the A/C button or the recirculator button, nothing happens. No light, no relay click, nada. Seems to be an electrical issue. The defrost works, so I know I have power to the switch. The blower is blowing strong.

    I checked all fuses associated with the aircon, about 6 in all. The troubleshooting is nonexistant for this in the Bentley and the schematic is not much help.

    I just did the front and rear suspension over the last two weekends while the cool weather lasted. I can't imagine doing something to break the A/C while I was under the car. Now that the end of March is in sight, it's getting warm in Arizona.

    Any ideas?

    there is a pressure switch that wont trigger when low on pressure, check pressure first.

    Check the pressure... it is always the first thing to check.... refrigerant pressure. You may have a big leak.
