In my 14 months of 1996 saratoga ownership, the AC has worked maybe 3-4 months. It's been looked at by 3 different shops at least 8 times. When the plane is running/flying and full throttle is applied, it is supposed to turn off the AC and tuck the condenser back in. What it does now is blow all the relays and become inop. It will cycle correctly on the ground with engine off, but not with the engine running. Not sure what to do about it.
