My A/C clutch is staying enguaged all the time. I can run the AC and it works fine but the problem is with the clutch staying enguaged it is running my battery down overnight. I have to pull the fuse out in order to keep my battery charged due to the A/C clutch. What is the cause of the clutch staying engauged all the time? It does it even if the air is turned on or off.
