Default 96 V6 Accord Air Conditioning

Hey, my air conditioning in my accord has been out for a few months. The compressor has gone out, is there anything else I need to change out as well like the dryer? Thanks.

How did you determine that the compressor is not working properly?

It's putting out very very little pressure.

Is the compressor clutch engaging? The clutch is the plate in front of the compressor pulley that should not spin with the a/c turned on and spin with the pulley when you turn on the a/c.

Is the entire system low on freon?

Yes, it was engaging.

No it's good on freon.

TexasHonda knows a lot about more about the a/c than I do. I'll let him give his advice on what you should do in your situation.
