[QUOTE="JTEarp, post: 599466, member: 8106"] Hey everyone. I was wondering if anyone has any input on my A/C issue. My 95 GT's A/C stopped working recently and when I turned it on it would just blow what seemed like the outside temp air (warm/hot). Since I purchased the car about 3 years ago and it is at 197,000 miles I figured it would be low on refrigerant. I purchased one of the refrigerant cans and attmpted to fill from the low side just under the strut bar on the passenger side. It did not seem to take any refrigerant as there seemed to be alot of pressure and oil blow back when attaching the line. I read from another forum that the vehicle's compressor needed to be running and I realized it was not coming on. So I tried to jump the compressor by accessing what I think is the low pressure switch on top of black round like canister by the firewall on the passenger side. The technique that was discribed called to remove the electrical conector from the top and run a wire to both terminals with the car running and A/C on max the compressor should come on and you would get that distinct drop in RPM that typically let you know your A/C just kicked on. Well I tried it and nothing kicked on and the air comming from the vents still blows warm/hot. All the fuses are good and everything seems to be rotating like it should and I have been driving it regularly for the last couple of weeks with the A/C still not operating :dontknow:. If anyone has any ideas that can help me pinpoint the problem or a check that I have not done please let me know. Thanks [/QUOTE]
