Default A/C problems

Hi there. I could really use your help. I recently charged up my ac system. It is blowing warm/hot air, I am not hearing the clutch cycle, and the climate control will not chage to blow on the face. It only changes between foot and defrost. Not sure where I should start testing. The relay in the fuse box is working, there is vacuum going to the control dial. That is as far as I got.

Thank you in advance


Pete

The service manual is located in the Stickys at the top. Check it out.

At the top of the forum (the page before list) it will say STICKY: before the title.

check the plug running to the black canister thingy, aka dryer. if the wires are messed up for whatever reason it can cause this. Check into it.
