Ray,

As sam said before:
P0545 A/C Clutch Relay Circuit Problem detected in air conditioning in
clutch relay control circuit.

At this point, I'm trusting sam on this because the guy who pulled the code
at AZ actually knew what he was doing (for once). He said it was a
manufacturers code. I also verified this with ron taylor. I'm just hoping
I can get this info out of the dealer before I authorize them to do any
work, so they don't pull a "oh, it was something else, so now its double the
cost" on me.

I know this one is gonna cost me. I'm already contemplating breaking out
the vasolene. :)
