Default AU3 A/C Question

I have been having a drama with my a/c, on cold mornings when I use the a/c to help demist windows etc, etc -the clutch does not engage long enough for it to do its job. If it rains the windows fog up instantly and i have to pull over to the side of the road. It only comes on for about 5 secs and disengages for about a minute. It works fine in the summertime (engages for about 25secs, disengages for a bout 12secs) but not in the winter. I have had it back to the auto elec twice to check and re-gas it. He said that it may need a new "pressure switch"??? or something. I have tried varying the temp controls, fresh & recirc, etc etc. Any ideas would be a great help. Its driving me nuts. Thanks -Craig

This won't solve the A/c problem but Rain-x anti-fog works great!
I didn't put it on tint(apparently not safe) but 1-1&1/2 weeks later it has not fogged up on me yet. Too bad i can only apply it to the front window
