What does it mean when your AC clutch fails?
If the AC clutch fails to energize then it would mean that you have a problem with power, ground, thermal protector switch, or the magnetic clutch. Based on what you are saying – I am guessing that shorting those 2 relay pins is essentially closing the circuit “manually” rather than letting the relay do it, correct?
What happens if my AC compressor doesn’t work?
If the clutch doesn’t work properly, you will still be able to drive your car. I have seen it so many times on vehicles where they just don’t use their AC; however, if your AC compressor doesn’t work, you won’t have cold air coming from your vents.

Why is my AC clutch cycling switch not working?
When the pressure returns to normal, the cycling switch will close. The pressure of the AC system fluctuates depending on several factors, such as the ambient temperature, age, and the amount of refrigerant in the system. This switch is designed to make sure that the pressure stays at a consistent level so that the AC can function correctly.
Why is my AC compressor not getting power?
95′ 378. AC is not working. System is charged but compressor clutch will not engage. No power at compressor. It does engage if I jump it off a 12V source. I have power in and out of hi and low pressure switches. Any thing I’m missing or do I need to start looking for a broken wire somewhere?
Is there a fuse for the AC compressor?
Yes, fuse and relay are fine. I think that year model may have a thermostat around the evaporator. You need to make sure you have power to both sides of that when you have the A/C switched on. wore out, bigguns and baha Thank this.
