Tried it out again tonight and I thought it was locked solid because smoke and burnt rubber smell was coming from the hood as soon as I pushed in the button. When I took a closer look it was not the belt, but from the clutch of the compressor.


Agree that you have a seized up compressor and you are just burning the clutch when you turn it on.. The clutch will very much have an odor like burning rubber or an electrical fire when you got it on with the compressor seized up... Been there...
