@Tester @davesmopar @Nevada_545 @old_mopar_guy @George_San_Jose1 I just returned from a one week trip to Las Vegas where it was 110s each day. Before the trip, I replaced the blower resistor that @Tester recommended. That fixed the Levels 1& 2 that hadn’t worked in 2 or 3 years. Replacing that, must have somehow blown out the Engine Compartment Fuse #24 Air Conditioning Clutch relay. I drove from 4-8:30am with no A/C there, trying to get it to start working several times. I replaced the relay & the A/C still didn’t work. I checked every fuse & switched exact relays & diodes. I knew the 8866 was bad because I switched it with another & the car wouldn’t start. My educated guess is that trying to use the A/C all those times without it working must have evaporated most of the freon. I didn’t have my tools & my manifold gauge with me since I was 280 miles from home. I did have an A/C tester that’s the size of a tire gauge. It showed slightly low. I ended up needing to put the entire full can in there to get it almost halfway in the OK area. Air conditioner works perfectly now, all the way home in 114 yesterday afternoon. Thanks to all of you for your help. I would close this discussion if I knew how to.
