Default A/C question?

Hey guys, had an A/C question for you. On my 88' 90 I cannot get the A/C compressor to turn on. The combination switch was replaced about a 2 years ago. Heat and Fan all work fine. The A/C light on the activation button lights up. My mechanic and I can get the compressor clutch to engage by directly linking it in line with the battery, but not by pushing the button in the car. The A/C system is charged so I am baffled. Could the a/c button be bad? or a relay, fuse, etc....

i have kinda the same problem. While your A/C switch is on go fool around with your combination switch, at different angles it might turn on like it did for me, then i found the right angle and put it like that agains my headlight plastic cover. Thats where i would start atleast, if your 100% sure your AC is charged and working.

Default sounds like you answered you own question....check the voltage to the switch....make sure the relays

are good and all the wiring is correct.
