I have a 98 wrangler with a few problems.I keep blowing the F 19 fuse

You should be able to disconnect the wire at the A/C clutch and see if the fuse still blows. If it doesn't blow with the clutch disconnected I would assume you have a bad clutch. If it still blows with the clutch disconnected I would look for a short to ground on the feed wire to the clutch or possibly a bad relay. |

That's the same wire that runs between the high pressure and low pressure cutout switches. While I've never heard of a switch failing to ground I suppose anything is possible. You need the wiring diagram to chase down the short. -- DougW |

Nope. It runs from fuse 19 through the A/C relay directly to the A/C clutch. The wire is Dk Blu/Blk. While I've never heard of a switch failing to ground > I suppose anything is possible. There are no switches involved. You need the wiring diagram to chase > down the short. Not really. The wire in question runs from the A/C relay to the compressor clutch, nothing else in the circuit. Should be easy to check with an ohm meter. > > -- > DougW > |
