I'm just passing on what I've run into and what I've read on the forums. Both the cycling switch and the High pressure switch on the compressor itself seems to be giving owners a bad time with the A/C. Apparently the high pressure switch is on a national back-order from the dealer as so many of them are needed to fix problems. A lot of problems are also caused by the fan not coming on, the system heats up and pressure builds up and the compressor vents freon out the bottom, then the system is low and the compressor stop working. It's all a vicious cycle. You say it's still under a warranty program so they are going to have to figure it out.

I looked it up in the parts catalog for the 2007 cruiser. For some reason I can't explain, the SWITCH, A/C :Low Pressure Cut Off has a picture of the switch for the Non-turbo engine but there's no part number associated with it. However, on the Turbo Lite and the HO Turbo, both use part number 05058487AA. I can't say if the Turbo models with use the same switch.

I actually located a switch to fix my ac.I had to take an hour drive to Miami and an hour back but it was worth it because i had ice cold ac on the ride home.I am glad i was able to find one beacuse it would be probably a month before they came in,2300 on backorder with 1200 orders already made for them.Thanks to Crewsin for the info on it.
