replace ac compressor,,they will lock up in some cases,,causes the engine to not even turn over,,plz replace ac compressor ,,try to take belt off see if it turns free by hand!
Check to make sure all the idler and other belt pulleys turn freely. It's possible that one of the pulley bearings is locked up which will cause the belt to smoke and fail as it slides over the siezed pulley.
The only other thing left is the switch,or the intermitent part of the circuit board on the wiper motor assy. Check the plug in connection,and the motor by tapping on the motor while on the lower speeds setings. Does the wipers park correctly when turned off??
Well I may need more information, but if something electrical loaded your engine to the point of a stall, i would expect fire soon. So most likely the fan motor is eliminated.
Now the A/C compressor, damaged and refusing to turn may be able to stall an idling engine, with todays cool serpentine belts... (In the olden days a belt would burn through and come off.)
The cheap solution to this condition is to turn off the car, and CAREFULLY unplug the compressor's electrical connection. Securely tie the wires out of the way, and test again...
You may want to consider repairing it, however, because the principle of refrigeration is a KEY COMPONENT to defrost in the winter...
Why? Because everyone knows a car air conditioner pulls moisture out, right? That crystal clear water that leaks out under air conditioned cars....
WELL, in the winter, rainy weather for example, is moisture. ....No remove moisture and no defogg.
None of the repairs work , If the system is not entirely flushed out, dryers, expansion valves and the like are replaced. If the original problem involved compressor failure, tiny bits of medal and debris may be still circulating in the system and casing other components in that system to fail. Someone does not know what they are doing.
It doesn't blow cold air? Doesn't come on at all? What's the problem? If it doesn't blow cold after a charge, it leaks. Either on the compressor or in a line or both. To start at the dealer, a compressor is about $1200. That's what they told me. I have two leaks. You can buy remanufactured compressor on ebay for under $200. Or find a good shop (polar bear around here) with reasonable prices and have them do it for something in between.
If it no air is moved at all by your climate control system, the blower motor could be fried, the switch may have gone bad or a fuse is blown perhaps. If it moves air, but not cold air, recharge it and see if it stays cold. If so, great! If not, find the leak.
