Greetings to all Members.

The air con in my G.Cherokee 2.7 CRD 2004 is not working . I had it re-gased, but it did not help. The clutch is working and wheel is spinning. But no pressure. Someone told me that it could be a shaft inside broken. So, even when wheel is turning it still won’t work. Before changing the AC compressor, I want to make sure if any other components are OK. For example are the any fuses, relays or switches which AC compressor is dependent on? I will greatly appreciate any information on the matter from experienced members, before I spend lots of money for replacement compressor. These are hard to get and expensive. Cheers

 

If the clutch is engaging it's not a fuse.

 

Thanks. Good point . So, most likely the shaft broke inside. New compressor, then.... ?

 

Check the pressure again, if it's the same as the fill up then yes it's the compressor. But if you're losing refrigerant it could be a bad condenser, shotty lines, etc.

 

Thanks. I found used compressor for £ 215 and waiting arrival. There are so many types fitted in Grand Cherokees, hard to get the right one. I hope this one will be good. Cheers
