A/C problem on a 2011 GT
As of yesterday my car doesn't have working air conditioning. I don't know if I should expect any codes displayed in the dash but I'm not getting any. Visual inspection shows nothing wrong with the compressor or clutch. What I do notice is the load on the engine that normally happens when the compressor turns on isn't happening anymore, but it does appear the clutch does engage. I am assuming if it was a fuse it wouldn't engage the clutch at all. I don't know how to check for pressure to see if there are leaks and I haven't taken it anywhere. The one mechanic I trusted doesn't have a shop anymore. I'm hesitant on taking it anywhere until I have a better idea of what could be wrong. And if anyone has a shop they like in the Sacramento area I would appreciate the recommendations. Thanks for the help.

Welcome!
The Short Answer is it's Likely Just Low on Freon!
But That is Just a Guess Without Checking Pressure. Most Parts Houses Carry Freon Recharge Kits With Gauge These Days! This Guys Vids are Usually Pretty Good!

Thank you for the suggestion and the video. I can see how it would detect proper pressure then shut off due to not enough pressure. I'll try getting a manifold pressure gauge set to verify.
