When I turn my AC or defroster on the compressor now cycles on and off every 5 seconds and the electric fan never kicks on. I am guessing that it is low on Refrigerant...but thats not my main concern:
When it engages, the compressor is making a loud single "CLACK" each time. I did a seach on AC noises but no one seems to describe this CLACK. I am wondering if thats a sign that the bearings or clutch is on its way out? I am guessing so, but want to make sure before spending the $ on a new compressor.
