AC only works on cold start
My AC will only work after the vehicle has been sitting for a long period of time, then the compressor clutch disengages after around 5 min of working normal. The 110 degree heat is coming so I have to fix it. When the compressor is running, the low pressure side is running at about 35psi. I don't have a gauge for the high pressure side.
Are there common electrical components that fail on this car?
It seems like the climate controls are all working, I can even notice the minor rpm adjustment when I turn on and off the AC switch.

The L\S pressure is relative to ambient temp too. Some gauges have a cheat sheet on the back of the pressure range the low side should be at at a certain ambient temp...
I topped off my system yesterday, it was probably about 60deg in the garage and the compressor kicked in around 25psi from memory. I still need to add more freon though....
