I just invested $1200 for a new compressor & cooling coil about a year ago. And now the A/C just quit. Could there be a relay or something that is not kicking the compressor in. This car has 180,000 miles on it.

Please check the level of your freon. And also have a aircon specialist to check for any leak test. Please advise me what will be the result. I will leave this page open and wait for your response.

Hi Darol,

I just want to follow up if you already check the a/c fuse? If the fuse is fine have a aircon technician if the level of your freon is ok and also have the mootor blend door might not working properly as well. It is much beter if you will have a certified a/c mechanic will have it look for your. Below is the a/c diagnostic chart for your reference.

Hope this helps with regards to your issue. I will be standing by for your response.
