a89aries Posted August 12, 2007 Share Posted August 12, 2007 Since I bought my car a month ago The A/C has worked flawlessly, got cold quickly and lasted for long trips. Today on the way home I had it on and after a bit my friend was cold (yes its that good!) and shut it off. No more than 3 minutes later I turned it on again and the air now blows warm. I Can't hear/feel the compressor turning on anymore. I'm sending it into the shop this week to see if they can figure it out. Was curious if theirs a common relay/wire that comes loose or anything simple I should look for? Car is a 1997 Legacy GT. Thanks Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leggtnut Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 I would check the A/C fuse under the dash or in the engine bay. When I picked up my Baja new, the fuse was not set in and was blowing warm air.

a89aries Posted August 13, 2007 Author Share Posted August 13, 2007 I checked the one under the hood, as well as switched around all the relays (4 A/C relays! holy crap!) all the same P# tho so I just played musical relays. Still no change, clutch won't engage. Couldn't see any fuses under the dash relating to the A/C however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leggtnut Posted August 13, 2007 Share Posted August 13, 2007 I couldn't remember if there was one under the dash. Maby your compressor just took a crap.

Turbo_Face Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 Same thing just happened to my legacy, worked a week ago now it just blows warm air. When I turn it on I can hear a quiet squealing noise. I just got my legacy 3 weeks ago and it is a 97 gt as well. Did yours make any sort of odd noises when it stopped working? I drive on dirt roads often so maybe the same thing happened, but I hope not! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a89aries Posted August 17, 2007 Author Share Posted August 17, 2007 I was asleep in the back seat when it happened so i'm not sure. Guess the only way to tell is to look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
