Subject:A/C Question
From:James Bowen
Date:Mon, 29 Apr 2002 18:25:52 EDT

I've got issues with my A/C.  It works well, very cold when the compressor is
on.  The problem I have is that just when the cabin starts to cool down, the
damn high speed radiator fan kicks on and turns off the compressor.  The fan
runs for a few minutes....just long enough for me to start sweating again,
then it shuts off and the compressor turns on.  On, off, on, off ... you get
the idea.

I've kept my eye on the temp gauge and the fan kicks on when the needle is
just barely past the middle of the idiot light.  Hardly overheating, I'd say.

Does anybody have any ideas how to correct this?

Sincerely, Melting in Austin.

TIA
