Please i need expert advice! I really need help guys! i got my car back from paint today. But it seems when it was in the shop someone hit the manual sanden switch and tried to start the car and threw the belts out of whack. so when i brought her home and tried to straighten it all out the sanden seems to be locking up! when i manually turn the vbelt pulley with a socket it with only make one turn and then lock up, it wont budge, and this is in both directions. why is it doing this??? this happens when the clutch is engaged and when it is free moving and i put a socket on the middle nut.... PLEASE HELP I CANT DRIVE for this supplies air to the air ride suspension!
Sorry, but it sounds like the compressor is toast. I searched "manual sanden switch" and found this... http://www.jeepaholics.com/tech/OBA/oba.htm As for why it's only that way, you may want to check with people who use or mod these compressors or air pumps. Sorry I can't be more help. Sounds like the people in the paint shop enjoyed fiddling with it too much. Why didn't they disconnect the battery?? :spank: good luck, ElectraJim
thanks. Those guys are idiots, and its my fault yoo that i didnt disconnect the system!!! AAAGHH...im so mad. i dont understand why the compressor would sieze up though...
It's full of of Mar-Glass :eek2: Seriously, if it's got a million miles, or lacking lube that could do it. If it's a reman, see if it's under warranty. ElectraJim PS, I'm NO expert on this.
