1995 Mercury Mystique - AC compressor turning on and off Thanks for the suggestion. I'm already a thousand dollars into the whole ordeal and we're exiting the hottest of the weather now. I think I'm going to take it in for at least a check-up and get an estimate and then make a decision. |

1995 Mercury Mystique - AC compressor turning on and off Yeah, only a second or two. It clicks on for 1 or 2, then off for 1 or 2, then back on again. |

1995 Mercury Mystique - No more cool air from AC I was able to locate the problem - it's simply a loose electrical connector on the new compressor. You can jiggle the cluster of wires running into it around and it will kick on and off. I'll be taking it back to the shop to have fix up the connector. It's a pain to get to because it's under the engine. Thanks for all your help, everyone! |

1995 Mercury Mystique - No more cool air from AC Thanks. I checked the compressor later today and it didn't seem to be running. Gonna get under the car with a multimeter soon and see if I can figure out if there's something up with the relay. |

1995 Mercury Mystique - No more cool air from AC I took it on a drive today and the air worked for maybe 5-10 minutes, but then reverted to outside air temperatures. My best guess is that the compressor seized up, but I did not get out to check it out. (Late for work!) |

1995 Mercury Mystique - No more cool air from AC Thanks! I will look at that too. I took it on a drive today and the air worked for maybe 5-10 minutes, but then reverted to outside air temperatures. My best guess is that the compressor seized up, but I did not get out to check it out. (Late for work!) |

1995 Mercury Mystique - No more cool air from AC Thanks for the tips! I just went out and checked on it... magically everything is pretending to work now. The compressor is running, cool air is coming out. Planning to drive for at least a couple hours tomorrow so I will see what happens. Right now I am leaning towards low freon - I'll have to see if it shuts off after running for awhile, it's likely to be hot out tomorrow. |

1995 Mercury Mystique - No more cool air from AC My mechanic told me that exactly! Said he had a hell of a time getting it disconnected, something about the hoses getting fused into it? |
