Hello all, I've wanted a Jeep since I was a kid and finally made it happen last week. 2001 Wrangler SE. Would have preferred the 6cyl but I'm pretty pumped regardless. Jeep has low miles (114k) and some upgrades (lift, 33s, winch etc) but does need a little work. Since I live in TX and its summer first order of business is getting the AC working.
AC does not blow at all. I've checked fuses and relays and everything is good there. Replaced the blower motor resistor, still nothing. Noticed the compressor clutch wasn't coming on so jumped the relay and got it going but still no air coming through the vents. With clutch engaged I hooked up a gauge to the low pressure line and appears to be low charge so tried adding 134 but no dice and noticed that lines started to freeze up.
AC work is a little beyond my depth so looking for a little guidance. My next step was going to be to replace the blower motor but would like to know if I should do some trouble shooting elsewhere first.
