By “taking a shit” what happened exactly? Did your AC just quit or will the magnetic clutch no longer engage or did it sound like a jar full of rocks when it was running? Depending on what happened it can either be no big deal or a PITA. If the insides of the compressor destroyed themselves you could have particles elsewhere stuck in the system then it becomes fun. If the magnetic clutch isn’t engaging did you make sure to check the relays and everything else first? If the A/C just quit on you did you check to make sure the refrigerant didn’t just leak out through an O-Ring somewhere. Give us a little more info before you dig in.
