alexus93 Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 this just happened to me....can either mberrett or jzz30 tell me what to expect when i take it to the mechanic this week? i am on vacation now, in a place that is fairly cold...do you think i should not turn it on at all?

alexus93 Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 let me add a few more details - the light first flashed and i immediately turned it off. after a few hours when i tried turning it on - it continued to give me the same problem. but when i let it rest for a night, and then drove for a while next morning - i turned it on and it seemed to be working fine. but immediately after that, when i tried to turn the a/c on when it was stationary the engine stalled immediately. is my compressor a problem?
