Don't know if this is the proper forum but here goes?

Have a 01 XLT 3.0 ffv with 210k miles. A/C works fine but it takes 5 to 10 minutes to kick on when started. Blows fine after that. Freon is fine. tried to bypass high side switch and low side witch to no avail.

Any ideas?

OK I found the problem. It was a faulty "A/C Clutch Solenoid" located in the underhood fuse box near the master cylinder.

I hope this helps anyone else who experiences this problem.
