Air conditioner question: Color me baffled! 700

posted by  someone claiming to be JohnB on  Thu Jun 27 05:05 CST 2002 [RELATED]

low refrigerant. At idle or start enough pressure on the low pressure side to enable compressor to run, but as suction builds up (low side drops) with compressor speed, low pressure switch cuts out compressor.

Confirm with pressure gauges...you should have at least 30psig at low side at 2000 engine rpm in most situations. If it drops to 10-15psig the low pressure switch will cutout the compressor.
