RECENTLY HAD WORK DONE. AFTER ENGINE HAS HEATED UP, AND I TURN ON THE DEFROSTER OR AC
THE COMPRESSOR TURNS ON AND OFF CONTINUOUSLY. LOUD CLICKING SOUND. SLOWS DOWN ENGINES POWER. WHEN I TURN IT TO HEATER IT STOPS. TURN IT BACK TO AC OR DEFROST AND IT COMPRESSOR CLICK ON AND OFF CONTINUOUSLY. AC BLOW WARM AIR. WHY IS THIS HAPPENING?

Hi there,

You will have to get the A/C system pressures tested first, this will give the technician a better understanding as to what is going on, this is the first step in sorting out your problem.
