Your 1997 F-150 trucks AC fuse keeps burning out What could be causing this to happen and make it to wear you have no cold air?
Mabe your compressor clutch is no good. A good way to check it is to disconnect the wires that go to compressor then turn your ac on. If it does not burn the fuse it means your compressor clutch is bad.
Why wont your Air Conditioner on your 1988 VW BUS kick in?
If it is too low on coolant the ac compressor will not engage. It is a safety feature to keep from burning it up. Try to add freon and as the pressure builds the compressor should kick on. If you are sure you have adequate coolant; it could be anything from electrical to a frozen compressor.

When air conditioner is turned on smoke comes from under hood. it has a burning rubber smell. temperature gauge remains steady and car stops smoking as soon as the air conditioner is turned off.?
What most likely is happening is the A/C compressor has gone bad and its not able to turn when it is switched on. The burning rubber smell is probably the belt sliding across the compressor pulley that's not turning.

What should you do if your residential AC outside unit fan will come on and the compressor will only come on for a second and then shut off and the unit is not throwing a breaker?
Call an HVAC repairman. You're probably low on freon and a protection system is keeping the compressor from burning up. Sounds like to me it is a protection device. Probably an internal overload on the compressor. Have you checked the outside coils they may be blocked with dirt? This would cause the compressor to go out on overload.
1998 Honda crv repaired ac control panel compressor still doesn't turn on?
Some possibilities: (1) The internal cabin temperature sensor may be bad. (2) The relay that controls the A/C compressor is bad. (3) The A/C refrigerant needs re-charging (if there is not enough in the system the compressor will not turn on, in order to prevent itself from burning out).
What causes burning rubber smell and squeaking?
If its from the engine bay, check the serpantine belts, and the timing belt. My old Toyota paseo had a bad serpantine belt and it did squeak alot. Also check all the pulleys make sure theyre not wobbly.
