AC compressor no engaging
Sunday, August 03, 2014 5:21 PM
'92 Cavalier

When I press the AC button, the compressor won't engage (green "activated" light next to AC button does no light).

Fuse is OK, AC recently charged.

Not sure what else to check - bad AC button/contact maybe?

Any help or suggestions would be appreciated, thanks!

I had this same issue! I wish I was near my car so I could send you a picture! BUT, on a metal A/C related line towards the front of the car, and towards the passenger side of the car, you should see a cord. If the cord is plugged into this line, try unplugging it, blowing on it, then plugging it back in.

If you don't see a cord, but rather an empty socket, feel around under that area in the engine (where you see the socket) and try to find a cord hanging around! When you find it, plug it in and it should work!

I have a '91 so the minor upgrades that '92 got might have moved things around in the engine, but I doubt it.

Hope this works!
