That makes sense to me, but it happened at the same time our house hold ac needed 2 lbs of refrigerant so it made sense at the time to add it to the car.
Out of curiousity, I saw where lafooy has the same car I do and was having a problem with AC (fan speed) and you mentioned putting a jumper in place to see if the fan speed would go to high. Then hsahai mentioned in a reply to my post that I could override and force the compressor to kick in. If I have freon in the system, would forcing the compressor to kick in help me determine if it is an electrical component issue? How do I do that and is it safe to do?
Thanks a bunch.
