We jumped the clutch by using alligator clips to the compressor plug and 12 volts from the battery. It ran by jumping it. We also disconnected the battery, my dad saw somewhere that can clear out any code that might be stopping it from running. Between those two things when I started up my car the clutch worked. I was low on refrigerant so we filled it. As we were filling it the compressor was a bit nosier than it should be. My dad said it could be that we need to put oil in the system to. We did the oil and refrigerant and it was only blowing hot air. The compressor would still get noisy from time to time.
Would the noise be because the compressor is going bad or low oil?
Today the compressor wont turn on, were going to check the pressure to see if down. We also think there is a leak. One good reason is because on of the hoses was touching against another hose on the metal crimped end. It wore down the one rubber hose but we cant tell if it's far enough to have a hole. We moved the hose the best we could to keep it from rubbing.
Thats where I'm at now. Not sure what to do next. Don't know if the compressor is going bad cuz of the noise, wouldnt blow cold air when we were filling it, and have one possible leak.
