Real Quick Question About A/C Clutch
Am I correct that the A/C clutch will not engage unless the system has a full charge of refrigerant?
I just replaced my A/C compressor, drier and expansion valve along with all of the o-rings under the hood and want to make sure everything is hooked up right before I get it charged with R-134. But the A/C clutch won't engage unless I direct feed 12 volts to it (jumpers from the battery).

Thanks Gorn. I was just trying to make sure it would engage and that all of the wiring was still good. I did a bench test before I installed the compressor, so I know the clutch works.
I'll take her over to the local shop and have the system evac'd and refilled with the correct amount of R-134.
