Hi Everyone,
My A/C hardly cools at all. I had the unit charged several months ago and they replaced the schrader(sp) valve as part of the service.
The suction line gets very cold and the compressor does engauge but it only stays engauged for a few seconds and then turns off. It cycles like this and does not do a very good job of cooling.
There is a company in Little Rock that specializes in auto air. One of the students from my college works there and they seem to be quite a bit less expensive than a dealer.
He indicates that there is a cycle switch on that car that could be bad and it is cheap. I assume that the short cycling would also result from a low charge (true/false?).
Anyone heard of this? Any other ideas?
Thanks,
J
