I am about 6 hours into my trip from Virginia to Colorado. Came through a thunderstorm. Air con blowing cold. Pulled into rest stop to walk dog. 12 minutes later no air con.
Got off the interstate and watched compressor. Clutch would not engage. I bought some wire thinking to bypass clutch switch. (I brought no electric wire or terminals from home)
Back in truck to find shade.
Aircon now working again. I had not done any test or repair.
I looked at the sight glass window on the drier. No bubbles as compressor was running. Nothing to see but the pale green dye or whatever.
Did the evaporated freeze up maybe?
Any help appreciated
Oh yeah. It has real R12 freon in it.
