A/C Clutch Cycle Time
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Ford Pickup. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
When ambient temperature is above 80°F (26°C), A/C clutch may not cycle.
To determine A/C clutch cycle time, record ambient temperature. Record time A/C clutch is engaged plus time it is disengaged (time on plus time off). System performance is acceptable when recorded time falls between upper and lower limits shown. See Fig 1.
