1998 V70 XC AC problem

Post by docharpCO819 »

AC problems on my 1998 V70 XC. Did cool fine when first started, after it had sat for awhile. Then the compressor wouldn't engage after it ran for awhile. Checked it and no voltage at the compressor. I have changed the presso-stat, control panel, high pressure switch, AC relay. It is full of freon. Any suggestions that I can try?

Welcome to MVS.
What shape was the actual compressor in?
Bad compressor could have knocked some of the other components out.
