Recently my 1997 Lumina started blowing the 10 Amp fuse that triggers the A/C relay to turn on the compressor. I have noticed that when I replace the fuse, the a/c works great until I turn off the switch, then when I turn the switch back on, the fuse pops. Without changing all of the components, what to you think could be the problem? I really appreciate your help.

It is either the compressor or the relay but 90% of the time it's the compressor. It is just at the point of getting ready to have a clutch failure. You can't replace the clutch just the entire compressor. Good luck
