Ac Compressor
My a/c functions fine during the summer months...once it gets cooler outside say under 65-70 degrees...compressor will not kick on...R-12 is full..pressures are fine...button for a/c lights up and I can hear the solenoid click in...but no compressor...this happened last year...and when the spring/summer months came around with the warmer weather...a/c is fine...the fan does not come on in the engine bay so I assume this is since the compressor is not kicking in?...I was wondering if one of the temp sensors is faulty...or the freeze switch is faulty...I have searched the manuals but they do not cover this particular problem...any ideas?

It did when the weather was warmer...I am going to utilize Wally's troubleshooting which is located on 928 Specialists site and work from there.

It's very easy to bypass the switches (pressure switch on the drier and the freeze switch) to find out if they're causing the problem. Or, you can use a VOM to check for continuity - that's a starting point.
