Trying to bring my truck listed above Super cab xlt 4x4 back to life. The A/C blower works and seems to cycle, but only blows hot air. It hasn't really been driven since 2008 and has sat in garage. I'm wondering if it only needs a recondition and recharge kit?

Hi,

If you notice the compressor isn't engaging, recharging is the first place to test. If it sat that long, it may have leaked.

Here are two links you may find helpful. The first explains how to recharge the system. The second walks through possible causes of it not working.

Let me know if either of the links helps. Also, let me know what I can do to help.

Take care,

joe
