Hey all. I’ve checked around on other threads and I think that my AC compressor is seized. Last owner said he replaced some ac parts but there was a slow leak somewhere, but it lasted him the summer. I just recharged the 134a and when I hit the ac button the engine bogs down and there’s a few sparks coming from the compressor. I checked with a couple wires from the battery to the compressor and it does engage the clutch but I can’t spin it by hand.
Is there anything else I could do/rebuild or is the best course to just swap out the whole compressor?
If the last owner swapped out the rest of the ac components do I need to do anything alongside the new compressor while I’m in there?
Pic below is what the last owner purchased and replaced.
