you probably need a new compressor, the seals ware out over time, put metal
crap into the freon, pull more on the fan clutch etc.
If this is the orgional compressor, you did fine! Time for another one, it
could be lifetime guarentee on it.
You can replace the fan clutch yourself, it is a bolt on. But the part is
too simple to fail in such a fashion I think.

But you can find the electrical diagrams online and see what else goes
through the fuse too

Good luck
