check the electrical connection at the compressor and also at the condensor The round thing on te firewall it has a sensor that screws into it if it goes out the compressor will not work. It will be on the pass. side of the firewall.

Sorry to hear that man. Sorry I would not be able to help narrow down the problem. But if you do have to get a new compressor, get a remanfactured one off of ebay. I had purchased one from a specific seller about 2 years ago and it is still running strong. I will try and find the seller.

Here you go. I do believe they have a one year warranty for it as well.

Here is the seller:
http://myworld.ebay.com/ebaymotors/airforcar/
Try and contact them if you have questions, they are helpful.

Here is one that would work for you I believe:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/A-C-A...spagenameZWDVW

$95+$30 shipping
