Alright here goes. I took off the belt last summer and havnt had it on since. I just put a new belt on..and the AC doesnt work. Does this mean i have to recharge it? or is there a fuse or something preventing it from working. Usually when i had it on..I noticed a drop in voltage and i knew it was working. When on the voltage isnt dropping. Any ideas?

 

sounds like you need a recharge but to my knowledge they have a low pressure switch where it won't allow it to turn on if there's nothing in it.

 

got any idea as to how much the recharge costs? And Thanks For your input

 

^^^are you planning on doing it yourself? or a shop.

If you are planning on doing yourself you can only get the chemical (freon, I think) in the US or Wildoutgsr aka Trenell. I recall he brought some up last time he visited the states.

As long as you have a helms manual and are somewhat mechanically inclined, it's as easy as an oil change.

 

Yup I bought 2 a/c recharge kits back home with me. One for myself and the other to sell.




If your low on refridgerant, the a/c compressor won't turn on. You also could have a leak, which would suck hard.

 

K! i bought a recharge kit! it works great! Naw i never had a leak...When i had my motor swapped..they disconnected the AC lines..and cleaned them out..and i havnt bothered to get it running since.

 

some1 fix mines its a 92 it has a leak somewhere. But i got a new compressor,condenser. Anybody got hook ups? i think it needs to be converted too PLEASE help me get A/C, i'm dying here with the black on black vinyl's.

 

i wish i could fix my ac...cracked ac line, and eventually the pulley itself flying off while on the highway...i dont even wanna bother!!
