My air stopped working yesterday (stopped blowing cold), so I changed the fuse and it worked for a bit, then blew the fuse again - changed it again and it blew again. Any suggestions? (a friend mentioned that my A/C clutch is bad???)

9 times out of 10 it is the AC clutch please unplug it to see if the fuse still blows if it doesn't look at this guide to show you how to change the compressor out.
