I want to check that the clutch does in fact, operate. I should be able to put power just to the clutch to see if it engages. This should be doable with engine and compressor off. But I don't really know how.

I changed the temp knob just to be sure and check all the fuses.. it worked for few days and then stops and works again.. intermittent symptom... one day check all the connectors at the rear pillar and suddenly the compressor engages again.. I cleaned up that connector, make it tight and it works good since then |
