Hi all,

My A/C compressor is not staying on. I press the A/C button and I hear it click like it's engaging but it cuts on for a few seconds then the A/C button blinks.
I installed a new A/C relay, condenser, evaporator, and compressor. I took it to a shop to have it changed and its holding pressure.

I'm not sure what to try. Any thoughts by the group?

Thanks

ok some things to check to help me help you:

does ur ac compressor actually kick on?

do the fans turn on at low speed when they do?

does it stay on for a couple seconds, click off, and then blink the light?

check the wire going to ur compressor, how many are there? (one pin, 3/4 pins)

Yes mine does

yes, mine blinks

One wire to the compressor


I found 3 AC amplifiers at the junk yard. i tried all 3 of them and the light still blinks.

I'm at a loss now.
