problems solved daily...
Not a huge problem...it's just not coming on.
I searched the archives, but couldn't find anything specific to what I'm experiencing.
I took the wife's 97 LX 450 to the A/C shop. They confirmed that there's plenty of refrigerant in the system. The A/C compressor is not coming on in Park, Neutral, Reverse, or Drive.
The guys at the shop seem to think that it's likely one of several relays -- they simply didn't have the right diagnostic tools to isolate which relay(s) might be a problem. I'm ready to apply a "shotgun" approach and simply replace all the relays associated with the AC compressor.
Anything I should try first?
Any reason I shouldn't swap out all the relays?
My alternative would be to take it to the dealership and have them diagnose and resolve the issue.
