I had a belt go on the A/C a while ago and I have been too busy to change it until a few weeks ago. The A/C doesnt work anymore even with the new belt. The clutch doesnt energize. I thought it might be a pressure switch or something. I went to charge the system, it is converted to 134 and I assumed the fitting on the top is low pressure. Upon putting on my recharge kit guage i see a pressure around 150 psi. this is in the red on the guage. my questions are:

1. how can I defeat whatever is keeping the clutch from engaging, is this wise?
2. is there a simple explaination for 150 psi on the low side, or is this the high side and there is another fitting somewhere?


Thanx

Scott
