you need to evacuate the system first of air and moister or you will have serious problems later. Any moister in system will freeze and also cause corrosion and contaminate the dryer. Proper fill also required since over charge or undercharge will cause lack of cooling also. Clear any codes in the PCM and TIPM since a shorted clutch will cause the TIPM to disable the clutch driver circuit. Clearing the code will allow normal operation if the system is properly charged. Fill amount is on label affixed to radiator support on passenger side of vehicle. You need a vacuum for 15 minutes min. Make sure it will hold vacuum before charging system.
Good Luck
