Default My A/C Compressor.
So, good news, my compressor is busted. I dont have any a/c and I live in the valley.

Can anyone recommend a good place with reasonable prices to get this fixed or are all places going to charge 800 + dollars....... I dont get why theyre so expensive.

Its probably that much because your system needs flushed. When a compressor goes it fills your lines, dryer, evaporator and everything with crap. A/C is very sensitive, im a certified a/c tech. You gotta pay someone to do it right if you want it to last.
