Hello, I been having a problem with my AC unit, did alot of research on this forum and discovered it was my high pressure switch that has gone bad, I put a paper clip on the 2 contacts and the compressor engaged and did not cut off. At this time the wire with the paper clip touched the engine block and caused a big spark and then the engine cut off. Now I can crank the engine but it will not turn on. Checked the fuses, and they seem to be ok. However, when I turn the ignition on I head a high pitch noise coming from the left side of the engine where the pulleys are and a couple of clicks... Please help!!!

Is there a worse feeling a human can have than that moment when you have some accident and all of a sudden you think the mistake just screwed something up TERRIBLY?

I about cried when my car would not start, then I rechecked everything and saw that fuse. Once I replaced it and it turned on, I about cried again!! lol
