A/C and starting issues
I have 2 issues, so I thought I would put them in one post.
#1:
My a/c doesn't work, the light doesn't come on the switch. Tonight, I found one a/c fuse behind the passenger side kick panel. It was blown, so I tried another fuse and tested the a/c. The a/c light came on for half a second and I could hear the fuse blow. Could there be another fuse that is blown before this one that is tripping it?
Any ideas would be appreciated, I'm not very good at electrical. I know there is another fuse box under the hood, but I didn't see anything labeled A/C.
#2:
When I start my car, it sounds like I am starting it while the engine is running. (That grinding noise.) It's not every time, and usually only does it once, then the car starts fine. Could the starter be going bad? Should I replace or get it rebuilt?
I appreciate any help I can get.

with truck off try to turn the compressor by hand. it might be locked up and causing fuse to blow as soon as clutch enguages.
check the starter to make sure the bolts are tight and starter is firmly attached, if it is then probally the ring gear on flywheel could be rounded in an area or two and starter gear clashing against it.
