I've searched the forum for a couple days, but I'm not sure what to do. Apologies if this has been covered already.
My AC blows warm, but everything else works. I got an AC pro kit, and measured the low side pressure, which was only slightly low. I filled it, rechecked, and nothing. Waited a couple days, came back and checked. Still nothing.
At 65˚F, the low side pressure was 30 psi, which is what it should be according to the cheapo gauge. I believe I located the compressor clutch, and it was not engaged when set to Max AC.
The AC pro kit doesn't come equipped to check the high side pressure, and I don't have a manifold gauge, so I haven't checked that side.
Should I force the clutch to engage manually? I'd like to fix this myself if at all possible.
