    Great explanation of why a circuit must be under a load in order to create a voltage drop. A bad ground tested under no load will often appear to be a good connection (no voltage drop). A little bit of knowledge regarding Ohm's law will help in this. Given a fixed resistance, in this case the wire going to ground along with the grounding connection, the more current flow, the higher the voltage drop. Voltage drop measured = Amps x Resistance.

    I saw another vid- 2003 Honda- he put a little pressure on the clutch and it started operating. A little too much gap for the magnet to pull. Took off a shim, to lessen the out of spec wide gap, and it operated normally.

      Eric O? (SMA?) I seen similar videos but remember this car had OPEN circuit on the clutch coil (magnet).

    The coil is a $90 part and it’s worth trying to replace that first. Also you may not need to pull the front end off of the car.

    A tad confusing since I’m wondering now if my AC clutch is bad or the entire compressor is bad instead in my 2005 Mini R52 1.6L? 🥵

      I'm in the same situation with my 2005 R50, but I am replacing my clutch first because it's relatively inexpensive, whereas doing the whole compressor is a more expensive and involved job. The compressors on our car are pretty bulletproof, so I'm optimistic that the compressor is still good. Good luck!

    When attempting to do any kind of work, I always do my research first especially if it is a new task. Research can make or break what you are about to do. Nice relay testing kit.

    On a normal relay the 5th prong is for a circuit where you need power through the relay when it is not energized. Mini relays can be different, in fact some of the prongs are in different locations compared to a normal relay.

    Will the a/c clutch spin if there’s no freon?

    • @CoolAirVw
      @CoolAirVw  Год назад

      No. Control system will see low pressure and wont turn on the compressor.

    Where can I get does diagram

    • @CoolAirVw
      @CoolAirVw  2 года назад

      mechanics use one of 3 services to get wiring diagrams. Pro-demand (Mitchell), Identifix or All-Data. They each have their benefits and drawbacks. A DIY'er should consider buying a hard copy repair manual that has schematics in it for his car.
