1999 LC
Tried to use my AC not that long ago and it would start flashing after a second or two. It has done the past, usually when it's really hot and I'm idling, but now it's doing this fluttering with the engine. I presume it's the compressor trying to engage - from other threads I have been trying to here a grinding, but it sounds more like a whirring, like another engine trying to start up. Here's a video - in it, the car is already started and the only thing I do is press the button, the RPMs flutter and stabilize when the AC button starts blinking, and then I do it again. Any thoughts are appreciated!
