hey guys, i have an '04 stratus r/t that is in excellent condition with 52k miles on it. i have never had any problems with it except the A/C, and every 2000 miles i get an oil change, get the engine checked, and top off all the fluids.

however, this morning, walked outside to go to work and noticed that the battery was completely dead. no big deal, because i had remembered that i jumped the A/C relay under the hood and forgot to disconnect it when I shut off the car yesterday and it drained my battery. my friend helped me jump it, got it started, and now the check engine light is on... wow, and plus my vents are still blowing out cold air even though i took the relay out for the compressor, so maybe a possible r134a leak?

anybody have any suggestions?

 

hehe some people are so funny.

 

sounds like a bad a/c relay.did you jump the relay (about 1" cube in the relay/fuse box) or the low press switch? seems to me if you have cold air the sys is ok and you aren't loosing R134. what type of issues are you having with the a/c?
