2006 A4 2.8 Cabrio - AC troubleshooting
In the process of troubleshooting the 3.0 V6 Cabrio AC system (not cold).
Checked low/high side pressure, but doesn't seem to 'take' refrigerant.
Put 12V to the compressor clutch, seems to be 'clicking'.
Is the pressure switch (assume low/high) located on the condenser? Does the bumper have to be removed to get to it (want to jump the low pressure switch to see if compressor kicks in)?

Are you sure the Cabrio is a 2.8 and not a 3.0 or 3.2? Is is a 2006? The reason I ask is that the '06 V6 sedan would be a 3.2, and also the AC compressor would be the variable stroke type, which doesn't have a clutch that clicks.
