Auto Air Conditioning & Heater Repair: 91 chevy silverado a/c, gm trucks, chevy silverado


Question
i have a 1990 silverado 150 2 wheel drive..the air works perfect most the time.. but sometimes the a/c quits ...when this happens the a/c light on control panel in truck flashes..if you disconect the battery under hood a/c will work fine again for a weeks or maybe 5 minutes  

Answer
Aloha Eric,GM trucks have two areas that cause this concern.Check low pressure switch that is located on or near the accumulator. Switch may be defective. Second is the main a/c panel.If you have the digital display type you may have a short in the controller that may affect the a/c compressor relay that feeds current to a/c clutch.I have replaced controllers and relays to correct the concern.Since this is electric problem I would recommend a
good a/c shop to correct. Please inform me of your results
