Compressor won't engage
I need to clarify something on my previous question. I had the compressor replaced on my 2003 Ford Taurus and the system was fully charged. When I turned on the A/C switch, the compressor did not come on. I found the relay that sent power to the compressor, and when I forced the contacts together, the compressor came on and I had air conditioning. I replaced the relay, but no change, and all the fuses seem to be OK. This worked for a few days, but then it was no longer blowing cold air. There may be a Freon leak, but there is still the question of why I have to force the relay to send power to the compressor.
