I took my truck in to an A/C specialist. He has replaced absolutely everything related to A/C system. When I attempt to use it. It runs, even gets cold. Then the compressor shuts down after a few seconds. The A/C specialist says he needs to adapt some type of fan to cool down the condenser, in order to keep compressor running. Can anybody help? Thank you

Good afternoon,

This does not make sense. That is what the clutch fan is for on the motor.

Can you give me the high and low side pressures when the system is running?

Problem solved. According to mechanic, A/C was shutting down due to a bad wiring connection. I'll have more details once I pick-up today. Thank you
