Steve Mullins Couldn’t have explained any better . Your awesome

Jump 87 to 30 and it should get you going. Just did it today and didn’t have a extra hand to help me out (I have a 2007 classic body LBZ)

Pedro Valdez Im glad it was able to help u . And glad it didnt confuse you next time ill make a video of me actually doing it

Hey do yu leave the wire connected til freon is added? Or do yu just jumpstart it?

@@GlizzyGurlGossip , the way "I" did I left the wire connected so that the ac compressor is running. The compressor has to run for it to accept the freon. After you've put 1 can of freon you can disconnect the wire and insert your relay back in. Then run it like it's supposed to. Hopefully you got it.

@@pedrovaldez9559 ok thanks so much! Oh and what kind of wire can i use?

@@GlizzyGurlGossip, you can use any wire just as long as you can fit it in #87 like explained in the video. Speaker wire is good too.

S. Garr Your welcome enjoy your ac

mandujano70 Thanks for watching glad it helped

E A is the valve bubbling wer u put in the Freon ? If it is then that’s the problem

@@josesoto9099 Yeah it is, I already bought a kit for the inlets but I have to drain the freon to do this.

E A Unfortunately yes a shop will charge around 50$ to do it

My ac stopped working but before I put Freon in it, it started back. I have a 2014 gmc as well. This is the 2nd time its done that to me. What is going on with it?

Update. Quit working again. Mine had a tiny leak at the condenser. Replaced and all good now

@@reded6640 because it's leaking refrigerant. It's a pressurized system, so the low pressure switch is a feature built in to keep you from burning up the compressor, as the refrigerant is also it's coolant. If it's low enough that bumping it with a can of refrigerant won't engage the clutch and it hasn't been sitting for several years, you've probably got a leak somewhere. So refilling it gives enough pressure for it to run, until it leaks out again.

@@CharliesTheMan thanks. The dealership said they think it was the actuator door and wanted to charge me $900 which I didn't get but turns out it a module that needed replacing. Only 30 buck and got charged 50 to get it replaced by a friend. Dealerships are rip-offs

It should i also did this on year 2000 silverado and worked

Kenneth Grimes I didn’t kno about that trick I’ll try it out next time

U shoulda said that the first time lol

I kno it’s not the best quality I’m no pro utuber but ay u can’t complain if it got your ac to work either go waste hundreds of dollars or deal with the long 7 min video. Wat car did u try it on if don’t mind me asking

@@josesoto9099 no all good bro...thanks again...I got a 2000 silverado

My Silverado 2004 keeps burning my a/c clutch fuse . Any idea what it could be ? I appreciate any ideas .

Big Rock candy Mountain your welcome

Gustavo Fernandez Your welcome bro

Cold Striker Good thing u came across the video

Really.! Ive heard many say the sealer is great and softens rubber seals.

Joseph cox Glad it helped out and yea some vehicles have different terminal numbers i did this also on a honda civic and I believe it was a terminal 3 and worked 👊 well thanks for watching have a wonderful rest of your day 💯 💯

Vandon Hobbs Yea if u tried this and didnt work u probably need a new compressor,

@@josesoto9099 it worked put in a new compressor. Still having issues but the clutch is engaging now

Vandon Hobbs What issues are u still having

There is a relay for it just having trouble locating it on the net as well . I believe ther blue colored how many blue relays do u c in your box

Personally i have never tryed hot wiring to the clutch so idk if it would damage it

I know a ac relay exists on it cuz if you online shop for a ac relay they show up

kzfaq.info/get/bejne/bbyhmaqC0danYas.html

This diagram link i sent shows its 42 , check it out

Have tryed puting the wire in any slot

I did this on a honda the other day i tryed all the slots till one worked at first i was iffy about but did it anyways

@@josesoto9099 thanks man for getting back to me. I am going to try it tomorrow wish me luck. Thank you so much for this video what a help to people like me. God bless You

@@josesoto9099 well I just looked at my fuse box and can't find the relay on it I guess I am going to try and find it some how. But again thank you my friend

my low pressure valve was the one closer to the sensor

Usually the pressure gauge that comes with the freon can has a green zone were it wants u to be in

I know it's late but for others that see this, look up "A/C Refrigerant Chart" because the pressure you need changes with ambient temperature. It will tell you how much you need for each temperature range, match that up with the temperature outside when you're filling it, and you'll be golden.

I tried jumping 87 and 30 with paper clip, but clutch will still not engage.

@@Eyes4Hire yours might have a bad clutch or bad wire

@@eroom2087 It is a new compressor that came complete with clutch, but I am starting to suspect that they sent me a defective one.

@@Eyes4Hire just jump a wire to the compressor

If you got a test light check to see if you getting power to the clutch

Gabriel M Yes then u turn on the ac full blast then proceed to jumpstart the compressor clutch

Myyoutubechannel I would try each one until you hear the click

Myyoutubechannel I had the same question when I attempted this on a Honda Civic my relay for that car did not have any numbers on it. So I just tried each little insert until I heard the clutch engage

Hope that helps

@@josesoto9099 i connected the positive from the battery to each one of the terminals and got nothing turned on smh lol the clutch didnt engage

Myyoutubechannel Was your car on with the ac turned full blast as u tryed it? If it’s not working then it can be possible u will need a new compressor unfortunately

It's because the sealer is a short term solution for an A/C system that's junk. Once you run that sealer through it, it's going to clog up a lot of orifices that are supposed to be open. It's like a blood clot basically. Since it's a circulating system, it's going to gunk up every part it flows through. So if you're planning to buy a whole new compressor, dryer, condenser etc then you don't have anything to lose. But if it's just a minor leak in a line, it could damage a lot of parts while trying to fix the issue.

earl chester It should still work have u tryed it again ? Maybe the ecu caused it to do that

@@josesoto9099 I haven't tried it again coz don't want to screw something up. I'll just wait for a new ECU to arrive. Thank you sir.

get rid of the truck

Turn on the truck

Try replacing your fuse

He shoulda just told u to jump 87 to 30 and you wouldn't have to worry about it cutting off again

Stick wire from hot battery terminal to 87 slot , then clutch should engage then add your freon with the ac controlls on full blast

@@josesoto9099 I had the same issue. I pulled the ac fuse, and jumped the 87 and 30 prongs with a gem clip. Made the clutch kick on and was able to get freon in it.

Damean Rosales I used some speaker wire

Thanks brotha, ended up using a push pin lol, got it to work tho. Appreciate it

Barb wire from cow lot

Any wire that will fit in the slots

Did u add freon

david jimenez yes Idk ill do one next time in the daylight wit an actual demonstration

Nah video was dope I was just F@ckin ‘ wit you ,lol

Jorge Cruz Yes after adding Freon you disconnect the wire and clutch will go back off , then you just put the relay back on and it will turn back on

What if after you put the relay back on and charging the system the compressor doesnt turn back on? Would it be a bad compressor?

@@angelcarrillo4420I’m having the same issue what was the problem on yours?? I have a new compressor

Updates?

DopeTheft Media If your compressor is not broken and is only low on freon this will work

@@josesoto9099 I recently swapped my engine and had to swap out the ac compressor as well so its was low on freon

DopeTheft Media Yea this should work by turning on the compressor manually did u swap the engin yourself?

No I had a homie help me with it.

DopeTheft Media Alright this really easy to do Wat i didn’t mention in the video Recomonding changing the lil valve wer u connect freon hose into , those lil valves break and leak sometimes and since your lines are completely empty now its a good idea to replace the lil valve they only like 6$ at parts store last thing u want after successfully adding freon is that lil valve leaking , they bubble wen they leak then u have to get freon vaccumed out and replace the lil valve n redo process

Its out of freon or the ac compressor needs to b replaced

@@ignaciomartinez3877 did u try another relay yours might be out

@@josesoto9099 I will try that right now I’m working on it ..I changed the compressor to a new one and it did kick on like you said on vedio I only put 1 can so far do I need another can of freon

@@ignaciomartinez3877 Did u check the gage and fill it to green? With one can it should be enough to keep it going

@@josesoto9099 I put a wire to the switch on the bottle and it works turns on and off

@@ignaciomartinez3877 Was the can of freon small or tall

Mary Lamb How many prongs are on your ac compressor relay

I think your numbers will be on the bottom of your ac relay fuse

My toyota different to my is cm 4 pro g and only says 30 on one so the front 2 has to be the one to engage compressor. .well any ways different cars different labels

Jona did u add the freon wen u had the compressor running?

Mines did the same. Got a 03 Silverado

Jose Soto Yes I did and I found the problem there was a leak, thank you

U might need a new compressor

There’s buttons you can press on your phone to turn up the volume.. life hacks

ehsan ali I’ll write it down next time😜

That was rude and stupid. Jose is a hero and you are a zero.
