purple highline monster 0 Posted August 12, 2005 Report Share Posted August 12, 2005 sounds like it needs recharging to me, if the pumps working as it should then it must just be low on refrigerant Link to post Share on other sites

magman 0 Posted August 17, 2005 Report Share Posted August 17, 2005 I had a similar situation a few months back.It was nothing to do with needing a "recharge" It was one of the electrical radiator fans. It was not switching on with the AC. Thus, no ac at idle but it worked ok at higher speeds, ie when there was the airflow over the ac condenser.Check the fuse on top of your battery, it's a big bugger. 50 amp I think.If it keeps blowing, check the fan. The fans have 2 speeds. (Low and high) If the fan starts in high then it will blow the fuse, leading to no ac.Long reply, but we got there in the end Hope it helps. Link to post Share on other sites
