Ok....Finally got back to the car....The A/C system is holding pressure just fine so I dont think that there is a leak....The fan and clutch work when I bypass the pressure switch so my guess is that the pressure switch is no good and should be replaced...any thoughts.

 

This is getting long, which means I didn't re-read everthing. If you do a continuity test on the pressure switch....what does it show?

There should be about 5v to one side of the switch.....then if ac pressures are to spec...the 5v "flows" to the other side.

 

Switch reads as being open, it also has 5 volts coming in but none going out so since the system has pressure and holds pressure I figure the switch is faulty... What do you think?

 

Agree as long as you're sure of system pressure. I remember something about a faulty pressure gauge.

I believe you will have to discharge the system to replace the pressure switch as there's no schrader vavle beneath the switch.

good luck

 

Bingo, I replaced the low pressure switch are then pressed the system back up along with additional PAG oil and it is cold as a new system.

 

Thanks for the update....cold ac, nice

 

Few things in this world are more satisfying than repairing your own ac and enjoying the chilled air.

thanks for followup

good luck
