[QUOTE="Dave_in_AZ, post: 12042872, member: 164322"]Is it one with a DPF filter? Sounds like it's tripping the overload when the compressor kicks on. This could be as simple as the two leads going to the compressor aren't making good contact. Take the cover off, unplug said leads, and make sure they aren't grounding to anything and are making good contacts. Or your compressor or alternator could be roasted. Or something is rubbing in the harness. Typically what happens with these is the engine lasts forever. It's the stuff that's bolted to it that goes south after awhile. You basically replace everything, except the engine, then you're good for about 3 years.[/QUOTE]
