2 part question guys-1. a/c condenser fan fuse keeps blowing so I replaced the condenser fan motor to no avail, it seems to happen (after the ac is on and the fan has worked for 5 minutes) with a slight jolt to the rpms as if their was a vacuum leak. Also 2. the a/c was ok at 75-80 degrees but at 90 the car is a sweatbox, I tried to charge it with new style refrigerant as i've seen it work on other cars but attempting that just made the front and firewall connection pins start leaking. I covered them with the plastic caps and now there's no cold air whatsoever. Ohh by the way the belt starts squeeking at takeoff w/ the a/c on but goes away in 2nd gear/higher rpms. Heeelp, any input would be greatly appreciated. thanx.

Replying to: 90coupegak (May 14, 2008 7:31 pm) Not enough high side pressure, is either a bad compressor, or orifice too large. Too much high side pressure, clogged orifice or bad pressure switch not turning off the compressor clutch. I've never switched freon types (or heard of anyone doing that), that seems like a disaster in the making. I'd get it to a good a/c guy. Expect charges for a purge, perhaps a new compressor (expensive), perhaps a new orifice (cheap), perhaps a new accumulator (medium $), and a refill with the correct freon. Pressure switch if needed.

Replying to: Fukuyama (May 19, 2008 1:20 pm) If anyone paid to have all of that work done on it, and was still having problems, then take it back to the mechanic who did the work to fix it right. You don't want to have to pay for all of the freon evacuations and refills. |

guys the ac condenser fan fuse keeps blowin after working for 5 minutes or so. I changed the fan motor with no difference, changed the fuse to a 20 amp instead of the recommended 15 amp; that lasted 5 minutes longer and that blew, any ideas??? ohh the fuse blows when the rpms drop slightly (like a vacumm leak)as if i was putting the defrost on or the wipers or pressing the door locks which i'm not doing. the ac has to be on obviously for the fuse to blow bc the fan is supposed to work as soon as u turn the ac on. thanx
