The AC punmp on this vehicle is not operating. I have checked the AC fuse(s) and the relay with no issue found. It is not low on freon. The car does have climate control with all indications inside of the cab as being normal. I have tried to access the clutch energize wiring but it is impossible to access short of pulling the pump. No check engine light.

Any suggestions?

Cordially,

Hi there,

The first thing to do is get a pressure reading done on the hi & low side this will give a better indication as what is going on, do this first.

I did check the pressure and it is appropriate. There is no way to check the HI side perssure since the AC pump is inoperable.
