AC Issue Thread

[latosf]

Hey folks. I have a 2003 and my AC won't blow cold and stay on. The AC light just blinks and it blows room temp. I think I remember seeing a few posts on this issues but I can't find the post. Any help? Thanks

Most likely it's the magnetic clutch relay for the compressor. Pop the fuse box open and look for MCG. Advance Auto has an aftermarket replacement for $15 or Amazon has it as well below.

Same here, except the right two vents blow cold and the driver side 2 dash vents blow room. Recharged the system two times for $150 each time and it lasts 6 months max. Could my issue also be this relay?

AC Compressor relay

IIRC the fog light relay is the same as the AC one. Switch one and save yourself of buying something you don't need if it's not the relay.

likely not relay, you have a slow leak. go to a good ac place for proper detection of the leak zone, you are also gradually loosing ac compressor lubricating oil alongside the leak, you might run out of oil soon, and the compressor would lock up -- crash&burn
