Get a new tech. If he does not know how to check a sensor to see if it is faulty, he is just a parts swapper.

I agree you could have a bad relay.

Sorry for the hijack, but since you're dealing with the AC... Is there a reason why my Jeep surges at stops now when the AC is on? It is really only cold when I'm moving, and it gets warmish when idling at stops. I figure it needs service, but the Jeep actually surged pretty hard the other day and seemed to fight the brakes pretty hard.

Could that me an indication of a different type of problem?

Lack of airflow over the condensor,bad AC fan or mechanical fan.Could also be a bad compressor.I've seen bad AC compressor kill a big block V8 at idle.
