Hi,

Either the system lost charge due to a leak, the fuse is bad, the compressor relay has failed, or the clutch has failed. I realized you checked the fuse. In addition to checking the fuse, it's important to confirm there is power to and from it. You could have a good fuse, but it may not have power.

Here is a link you may find helpful when checking:

Also, take a look through this link and let me know if it helps:

If this happened all at once, it is likely an electrical issue. However, I need to know the engine size of the vehicle. The related wiring schematics are different based on the engine.

Also, let me know if there was any belt noise and if you checked the belt to make sure it is tight.

Let me know what you find as well as the engine size and if it has manual or automatic climate control.

Take care,

Joe
