Malibu Air Conditioning?

Question

My compressor for the sir conditioning is not kicking on. Can anyone tell me how to test the relay to see if I need a new one?

Answer 1

i think is no gas in system,or is low pressure

Answer 2

Easy, locate the ac relay, find another relay with the same part number and swap 'em.

Answer 3

Hi. Its proberly not a relay. Your compressor has a clutch on it that is electrically activated by a low pressure switch located near to your accumulator (The silver thingy that looks like a big thermos under your hood) what happens is when the pressure in the low pressure side of your AC system goes too low the pressure switch closes and causes the clutch to engage and turn your air compressor. A low charge of freon also will cause this but if you are low on freon that means it may be leaking some where. If it is leaking out then that means air (Which contains moisture) is getting in your system too and can damage it. The compressor seals on GMs are notorious for leaks. Good luck!
