I was wondering if anyone could help me out here. The bearing in my ac compressor is going bad. I can hear it when i start the truck and then a rattling noise every now and then and its coming from them compressor.

my real problem is i was driving the other day and i smelled smoke (i had the windows down, no air on at all) like a electrical fire smoke. so i quickly pulled over, but didnt see any smoke, and could not tell where it came from, and ever since then i haven't smelled it anymore.

so im guessing my compressor must have fried itself somehow. can someone shed some light on this as to if im right or wrong about my situation?

last question. IF my compressor is fried, can i just unplug the little wires going to it and drive it until i have it fixed? thanks.

4.6 by the way. if that helps.
