When the car first start in the morning sometime my A/C with come on but turn off after drive for about 10-15min, the Compressor with auto off. Or if I drive my car for about 1/4 of a mile and try to turn on the A/C, the A/C Compressor will not kick in!sometime even in the morning the A/C will not kick in at all. But I got a better chance of it working if it is 80-90 out side!:help:confused:

P. S I have put in a new compressor and a new pressure switch!

Check to see if you are getting power to the clutch. If you are, then the clutch is bad. If you are not, you will have to go through the wiring and figure out what went bad.

edit= hook guages up just to make sure the system is fully charged
