[s-cars] AC high pressure switch

[Joshua Van Tol]

What makes them think the problem isn't real? The switch is likely normally
closed, so that it can be wired in series with other protection devices.

If the symptom is the AC works fine when the car is at speed, but sometimes
quits right after start up or when in traffic, then I think you need to
look at reasons why you might not be getting enough condenser airflow.

Is the aux cooling fan working? If it is, is the viscous clutch on the
engine driven fan worn out? Last but not least, the condenser might be
plugged up with bugs.

My S6 had a worn out barely working aux cooling fan, and the viscous clutch
was worn. Replacing both fixed the AC. Cooling of the engine was not
affected.
