Default V90 A/C issue

1998 V90 w/203k

A/C comes on fine, works for 10 minutes, and then quits. Compressor stops at the same time, every time. If I shut off the engine, and restart ten minutes later, I get another 10 minutes of A/C.

System is accurately pressurized, no leaks detected.

One issue that has been cited as a probable cause is the circuit board behind the control panel.

Any ideas?

Probably the AC compressor clutch.

What's the gap on the compressor clutch look like? Might just need a reshim. We see this all the time.
