Lori, this is an 8+ year old thread, I might suggest you start a fresh one, with as much pertinent information as possible regarding your problem. Dredging up these old threads usually isn't the most helpful way to start a conversation, especially when they don't directly relate to the old subject matter or discussions. Just some thoughts to get better responses to your inquiry.

Lori my car has been plagued with the same problem for years now. Find the A/C relay in the engine bay and just install a jump wire that will make the compressor run. Your a/c button will continue to flash but you will have air! Ive been doing this for about 5 years now. In the winter I just take the wire loose.

Thank you, I hope to find someone to help me do this. I've been to so many shops and paid so much money, I'm not sure who to trust to do this. Are you in Florida? or is it something you could tell me how to wire my ac over the phone? if so email lorihemail@yahoo.com or call me 813-770-1723
