Hey everyone, it's been a while since I've been on the forum as I moved to Angola and took my cruiser with me.
It's been running great, but has recently the A/C has given me some problems. I was at the border with Namibia dealing with some customs agents last week and the A/C was ice cold performing perfectly. I turned the cruiser off for about 10 minutes, then started it up again, and was surprised that the A/C wasn't blowing cold air.
A few minutes later I arrived at my next destination and looked things over to see if maybe a fuse had blown, or perhaps some freon had been leaking out. I couldn't find anything wrong with it. I had a 5 hr drive home that night, and en route, I turned the A/C on while driving just out of curiosity. Fortunately it started blowing ice cold air again. It worked for a while, but though out the following week continued with the same symptoms and now isn't blowing cold air at all. I'm not hearing the A/C clutch kick on like usual, and I've confirmed at all settings, both manual and auto that the clutch isn't engaging.
I pulled out the glove box to see if maybe I could find a relay by the A/C condenser box, but saw nothing.
Can anyone help me here? I'm in Namibe, Angola, and while it's not the hottest time of year, suffice it to say that it's not southern England. We still need A/C. Any thoughts appreciated!
