I recently purchased a 1984 4KS and find 2 problems that I can't figure out.
1. A/C doesn't cool -- The compressor runs when the a/c switch is engaged, no
bubbles observed in the sight glass on the receiver/drier, all vacuum system
controls seem to be working properly but no cold air. During testing I
observed that the compressor kept running even with the temperature selector
set to the highest setting (all the way to the right)
2. Power Windows -- these worked find when the car was purchased. Yesterday
morning my wife drove the car, upon returning she reported that the windows
didn't work. I went to check and found that they worked fine-for a brief
while 2 cycles on the drivers side one on the passenger side and one down
stroke on the drivers rear then they went completely dead. Later in the day I
drove the car again and found that the windows worked when I first started
the car but later they were again dead. This repaeated itself on 2 more
occassions. My assumption is that this is caused by a bad relay, however my
Bentley only goes through 83 and has verty porr data about the location of
the relays for the windows.
Any help that the list can provide for either of these problems will be
greatly appreciated.
