Strange AC issue
#11
I checked the plug at the compressor, that was good to go. I'll get the pressures checked out, it may need a little but I think it's in the ok range as it blows cold normally, but that will be next try. After looking at the belt the belt looks to be aging, so I may go ahead and change the belt out like somoene mentioned before it may be slipping in the rain due to lost belt strength.
I see some have posted of their AC not blowing cold or getting hot. Common issue on these trucks at idle etc. I found somewhere, and I use this work out daily and it seems to help some, that if happens, truck running, turn **** to AC, from max AC. Turn off recirc, turn off AC, then continue **** to off shutting down system. Wait a few moments, turn know back to AC, turn on AC, then turn on recirc, then rotate **** to max AC. Something to do with the blend door staying open after truck is turned off with AC on. And playing with **** forces blend door to move if it didn't at truck start up.

I am told that there is a AC Clutch relay and its "highly" likely that this could be the culprit. I need to locate this relay and go purchase one. Its worth a $30.00 investment to have cold air in 95 degree weather.
