A/C Question...

I'm out of freaon in my car, so the compressor wont go, but i want to jump it...

does anyone know where i have to short or how i can get the compressor going.


i know on GMCs all you have to do is short 2 pins of the cable going to the compressor, but ours are different.


kinda want this fixed ASAP, so let me know!!!!

thanks!

why would u want to jump it. it will burn up your compressor if theres no freon.. its off for a reason. why dont u just go to the store and buy a 10$ bottle of freon and pump it in. well actually if its to the point to where its not even cycling then itll prolly take 2-3 cans. but still.

it will fill. w/o the compressor on. it just has to have a certain ammount of freon in. keep fillin it.. also check the a/c fuse. cause after alittle pressure it should start to cycle. click on and spin for bout 5 seconds and off for bout 10-20 seconds.
