I have checked the 134 and it is full and not leaking. There Is boiling hot air blowing out no matter what the temp is set to nor whether it is on ac or max ac. When on heater is on it is controllable to the level of heat. I have checked the under hood fuses and the power relay for ac. Neither were blown. It appears that the power to the compressor may my non-existent.

Hi Rastlosen, Welcome to 2carpros and TY for the donation

When you turn AC on do you hear the magnetic clutch engaged the compressor? If not could be a freon problem, clutch, pressure switch and AC relay

Hi Rasmataz,

I can only hear the blower engage and disengage. There does not seem to be a difference in sound from heat to cool from within the vehicle. Should I be able to hear this from within the vehicle or under the hood?

Thanks

You should be able to hear it when you are under the hood when the clutch engages.
