Default A/C trouble

Hope somebody out there can help. I have the ati setup P-1SC with autometer fuel and boost gauges. The power for the fuel gauge is pulled from a 10 amp accessory A/C fuse (as per the guide on the fuel box). The a/c went out 1 month ago and they changed the fuse block and it was better. At the time they said the freon was fine and the compressor was fine. When I try to turn on the A/c it either just blinks and goes off or doesn't lite up at all, this is exactly the same problem I had last time.
I called Ernie from Breathless who did the install of the Autometer gauges and he said that they always pull power from that fuse and that it has never been a problem. I pulled the fuse and it looked fine I even tried a new one but no difference.
Questions. Does anybody know if the problem could be that I'm sharing the accessory a/c fuse with the autometer gauge? Does anyone have a contact to reach autometer? Thanks for your help---it's real hot in Miami and this is my daily driver and I almost got into an accident when it started to rain and everything fogged up on me yesterday!
