Hi,
Can someone guide me to a troubleshooting guide for my AC? I don't think my compressor is even kicking in. Never worked since I bought the truck 2 years ago, but I'm finally getting to it... right after I replace the ball joints.
Thanks
Dan

Loads of information at www.aircondition.com
but you are going to need a set of gauges to properly troubleshoot any problems with the system. Avoid the cheap parts store jobs, they don't even work half the time right out of the box. get a decent set either Mastercool, Robinair ,Yellowjacket, Snap on etc,

X2 If you are going to do it, do it right the first time.
