Re: 2005 Grand Cherokee heater fan control failure
Hi Don,
Air-conditioning compressor normally cycles off and on. There are both a
high pressure and low pressure safety switches that are designed to save the
pump if one happens. You may be low on Refrigerant R134a, that may be
checked with a gauge: http://www.----------.com/temp/r12gauge.jpg The low
side should read a little higher than R12. This real should be done by a
licensed tech.
God Bless America, Bill O|||||||O

Re: 2005 Grand Cherokee heater fan control failure
a scan for fault codes would be the best first step then you would have a
better idea whats up

The compressor clutch will disengage if the system is under or
over pressure. Check the electrical connectors on the pump
(high side limit) and the accumulator (low side limit) and make
sure they are clean.
