    our wagon's ac is having problems. the "cold" goes in and out--
    sometimes the cold will come back on it's own, sometimes it will come
    back after turning the ac off for a while and then turning it back on.
    the ac mechanic said he could find nothing wrong--and suggested it was
    electrical. just wondering if anyone else has run across this problem
    and what fixed it. i wonder how costly this fix could end up being...

    Classic case of the compressor clutch needing re-shimming I wonder?

    My first impression was low refrigerant causing icing but then I read
    that the system has been checked by a mechanic. Now I would agree with
    the compressor chutch needing calibration.

    Find a repair shop that can read the codes for the climate control
    module & also check for any other codes all of these systems are
    networked & if one module sets a code it may affect another module
    have these checked & then you can make a correct diagnoses of the car

    Evaporator icing up? Does the drain drain?
