Consumer Description

AIR CONDITIONING SUDDENLY WENT OUT FROM COLD TO HOT AIR. CODE IN SYSTEM IS P0645, SAYS A/C CLUTCH RELAY CIRCUIT, AN OPEN OR SHORTED CONDITION DETECTED IN THE A/C CLUTCH RELAY CONTROL CIRCUIT. I BOUGHT THE SERVICE MANUAL FOR DODGE 2000 NEON. I WENT TO THE DODGE DEALER AND THEY SAID A WIRE BREAKS ON THE BLACK HARNESS ATTACHED TO THE CLUTCH RELAY ON THE AIR CONDITIONER. I HIT A BUMP IN THE ROAD WHEN THE AIR WENT FROM COLD TO HOT AIR. I CHECKED ALL FUSES ARE OK. THERE IS NO POWER THOUGH TO THE HARNESS TO THE HIGH PRESSURE CUT OUT SWITCH OR THE LOW PRESSURE CUT OFF SWITCH OR THE BLACK CONNECTOR ON THE AIR CONDITIONER. THE SERVICE MANUAL SAYS THIS MAY BE CAUSED FROM DEFECTIVE WIRING - FUSE - OR RELAY. I CAN'T AFFORD TO GO TO THE DEALER AND HAVE THEM TROUBLE SHOOT THE PROBLEM. ANY IDEAS TO WHAT MY PROBLEM IS AND HOW TO FIX IT? I'M STILL PAYING MY CAR OFF AND ALREADY SPENT 400.00 TO REPLACE BRAKE ROTORS ETC.., NOW MY AIR CONDITIONING IS FAULTY. HELP! HELP! *JB
