When the contacts are engaged by the thermostat or manually is there a time delay before the compressor or fan come on?

Yes, if there is an anti recycle time delay in the unit. No if there is not. If there has not been sufficient time since the last off cycle and a new on command for the refrigerant pressures to equalize, the compressor will attempt to start but will fail several times on it`s internal overload protection device until the pressures are equal before it finally does start. Giving the appearance of a time delay, this situation however should not affect either the indoor or outdoor fan. So if there is a delay on the indoor fan starting, there is probably a delay timer which may even be built into the thermostat.

How do you change a AC compressor bearing in a 2000 Chevy Cavalier?
You cannot change the compressor bearing, however, you can change the clutch bearing. Which one is bad? Is there a noise when the clutch is engaged, or not engaged?
How is the compressor clutch engaged on the air con system?
When not engaged, the wheel spins freely. When the low pressure switch closes, it closes the electrical circuit to the compressor clutch. This actuates an electromagnet, which pulls the clutch in to engage it.
Why would your compressor clutch be engaged when car is off?
AC Compressor clutch relay may be stuck. Remove the relay and see if the clutch releases.
How do you fix an air condiosoner pump because it does not spin or work?
Do you mean that the AC clutch does not engage the compressor? Or do you mean that the AC compressor won't turn even if the clutch is engaged? If the compressor is siezed and will not turn even if the clutch is engaged, the only choice is to replace the compressor. If you can turn the compressor by hand (understand that the belt pulley will turn freely with the engine if the clutch isn't engaged) but the compressor clutch isn't engaging, it might just be out of refrigerant. There is a sensor, usually somewhere near the receiver/dryer) that detects the "low side" refrigerant pressure. Once the refrigerant pressure at the sensor drops below a specified level, the compressor will not turn on. In other words, if the compressor clutch won't engage it might just be out of refrigerant.

Why is ac blowing hot air after installing freon?
Clutch possibly not engaged compressor maybe.
The ac compressor on my 1999 Ford Taurus won't stay engaged?
You should have the system checked for the proper amount of freeon. The compressor will not properly engage if the system is low. Hope this helps.
What should pressure read on low side air on 1996 Thunderbird?
With compressor engaged, 35 to 45 lbs.
You engaged ac clutch manually still no ac?
The system is probably empty of freon. Running the pump manually without freon can damage the pump. The pump relies on the freon to carry the oil for lubrication.
How do you reset your Honda Civic Si compressor?
it sounds kind of weird, but i have a 99 si and it won't run the compressor unless there's a certain pressure in the system, and you can't get pressure in the system cause the compressor won't work. i was thinking of getting a jumper wire and running it to the compressor so it stays engaged-
Why does air blow out of the accumulator instead of sucking the air in with the compressor engaged?
Assuming that nothing has been changed you're not looking at the accumulator. The aluminum cylinder on the output side of the compressor is a muffler designed to prevent hammering from the compressor being audible in the passenger compartment.
I have a 1994 ford aerostar had a new compressor orfice tube and accumulator installed last summernow my compressor wont work and i cant get it to except freon on the low side?
Make sure your clutch is engaged on the compressor. you can usually do this with a metal paper clip in cycle switch, on the accumulator.
