Hmm,

Not sure on the temp being problem I do not work in those low temps anymore. what is the temp inside the Crusier when you want to turn the A/C on? Maybe it thinks is it colder than it can do. If that was the case, to test warmup your cruiser put the Heat on high until it is nice and hot inside the cruiser and then turn on the air and see if it activates.

Cheers,

Michael

So I went out there and looked at the things my manual says I should look for...

The clutch looks clean and I can't see any grease leaking out.

I took apart the Stator Coil connection as per the manual and checked its resistance. The manual says it should be around 3.7 ohms +/- 0.2 ohms at 20 degrees C. It's about 8 degrees C outside right now and I've got infinity. So I'm thinking this is the problem...could this cause my magnetic clutch to stop functioning? Thanks for all the help.
