I turned on AC on this spring and nothing! I tried jumping the low pressure switch and the compressor still did not turn on. I noticed that the indicator light on the power button for the AV will flash 3 times when I try to turn it on and found this info in the owners manual:
#(Air Conditioning): Press this button to turn the
air conditioning (A/C) compressor on and off. When
air conditioning is selected, an indicator light will come
on to let you know that the air conditioning has been
activated.
Pressing this button when the outside temperature is
too cool for air conditioning will make the air conditioning
indicator flash three times and then turn off to let you
know the air conditioning mode is not available. If the air
conditioning is on and the outside temperature drops
below a temperature which is too cool for air
conditioning to be effective, the air conditioning light will
turn off to let you know the air conditioning mode has
been canceled.
I first tried to run the AC when in Tennessee a couple of weeks ago when the temp was in the mid 70's so I don't think that the outside temp was the issue.
Does anyone know if I could have a bad temp sensor or what other problem I might have.........I AM going to get the battery and charging system checked because I know that they can cause problems in these computer controlled trucks but it has not showed any signs of problems in those systems.
It is a 2007 Avalanche with the manual controls.
