A/C problem?

1998 Chevolet Lumina 3.1 engine. A/Cwas working fine and stopped out of a clear blue. I've checked all the fuses and relay they or good, but have no power at the plug to the compressor clutch. The switch for the A/C also controls the heater and defroster, they work fine. Could the A/C part of the switch be bad? I had the dash pannel of to repair the clips, and it just covers the Insturment panel and switches. there are no wires that can be hit. But Later after replacing panel the A/C stopped working, Is this a ***** or what happed.? Help it's getting very hot and 260 A/C is a bummer.

A/C problem?
If there is no power going to the A/C clutch, than there is a electrical problem, it is either a break in the wires somewhere or the A/C switch is bad on the dashboard.
Reply:i have a 96 Chevy Lumina, and had the same problem... it hasn't worked for me in 2 years, and I've changed everything imaginable.. the problem is with the vehicle itself is what I've determined.. i don't know why they made more of these vehicles after 96.. they are a piece of crap
Reply:You will only get power to the ac clutch after the ac and fan switch is turned on and there is enough gas in the system to activate the low pressure switch, this switch completes the circuit with an earth.





Good Luck
