I didn’t see a forum for A/C questions/topics, so I’m posting here. If in the wrong spot, please move.
Back story before leaving on vacation 6/7, A/C ran fine when parked in driveway.
Returned on 6/15, moved truck to rearrange vehicles on our return, and A/C is blowing warm air at best.
Air flow is fine but luke warm to warm.
2018 Ram 3500, 6.7 Cummins, engine is bone stock.
Hadn’t done any mechanical work to it.
This week, driving it, I noticed I wasn’t hearing the fan clutch engage like before.
Today, I picked up a set of gauges to check pressures.
While getting the hoses hooked to the manifold, I had the truck at high idle (1,500 RPM) and finally started hearing the fan clutch engage.
Engine at operating temp (192-195), A/C on max and recirculate, temp set to low, doors/windows open I got the below gauge readings.
I’m definitely NOT an A/C guy, but my assumption is, I have a faulty compressor.
Low Pressure - 42psi
High Pressure - 45psi
Y’all’s thoughts?
Compressor and more? Compressor and fan clutch going out/weak?
