I was in a parking lot with AC on and I heard a loud squeal for about 20 seconds and the AC quit. I added some 134A. Put gages on and pressure was 110 on both high and low. I spun the clutch by hand and it had some resistance. I then started the car and turned on the AC. The clutch turned but the pressure on the high side did not change.
My theory is when it squealed for 20 sec is that the clutch seized up and the serpentine belt made the squeal. Then something broke when the squeal stoped and the AC stoped working. It makes no sound now but the clutch turns when the AC is on. Maybe the clutch is slipping so the compressor is not working?
Any Thoughts?
