2000 caravan a/c stops cooling after a few seconds
Hello,
Here is my problem. If I turn on the a/c, it will cools for only a few seconds, then stop blowing cold. almost like there is a buildup of cold air that blows itself out after I turn it on.
Everything seems to be working fine, compressor turning, clutch engaging, no refrigerant leaks I can see, water dripping from the evaporator.
Got a recharge kit and checked the pressure on the low pressure side. When compressor is off, it reads between 100 and 150 psi. When the compressor engages, it drops to almost nothing.
Any ideas?
