Aircond fan running on all 3. Gas doesn't feel like running..coz starting of the a/c before it turn off was not even cold.. Then when it shut off,hot air only..and now if u turn on the aircond,for the first few seconds, idle will be like struggling..god.. Guys..what's the problem now..my head has to many things and I did a research till 6AM yesterday about the aircond and charcoal canister. I think the AC idle up valve might causing problem too..and alternator is giving a way..
Hope anyone who can help me in this could really contribute..

Means you air con running but no cold? Need more accurate feedback.

Main thing is the compressor, is it running? Magnetic clutch activated to run the gas.
Enough gas or not, see receiver drier whether gas bubbling or near liquid form
If not enough gas then got leak some where
If enough gas, see fan speed fast enough or not
Other then that will be the expansion valve at the cooling coil
Does the receiver drier ice up?

I will check it out tomorrow..My main suspect, compressor! If not that one it could be the receiver you told me about...

What if the air cond compressor kick in and off, in and off? Compressor faulty?

Mine say my car is on stationary. On gear D, when I turn on the air cond, legs on brakes. The car will jerk in front.
Then the sound of switch on and off sound from the air cond.
