Hi,

I had the same problem last year. First I though, this were caused by an electricity problem - may one sensor does not work or the circuit was interruped.
But the guys from the garage just refilled the A/C, and now it works.

hey my ac compressor started making a grinding noise today. I still get cold air and it will make a noise even when the ac is off. I checked that link out and now I think the bearings went in it. so tomorrow im goin to buy a belt without ac until I can fix it. does anybody know how much it would cost for the bearings or how hard it is to fix it?
