Is there a special fuse for the compressor on a 2001 Kia Sportage? The blower fan works but the air does not cool and I don't hear the compressor kick on & off. Please advise, I'm sweating bullets!

if the compressor does not kick off and on, either the high pressure switch is bad or you dont have enogh pressure in the system to kick it on, meaning that there is a leak somewhere

It does have a fuse too, but its a black square relay, but I dont believe that is the problem, the relays are in the engine compartment
