Hey everyone,
Well i finally installed air conditioning in my truck after waiting all winter. everything is working fine except i cannot turn on the compressor from the switch in the cab. We had to hot wire the compressor to get the rest of the charge of r134a in it and it was blowing cold air. I put the plug into the compressor but the clutch just won't engage when i switch the A/C on. What could i be missing electrically? my truck didnt originally have A/C so maybe there's a fuse missing somewhere? my haynes wiring diagram references an A/C clutch diode. where is this? to i need to go back to the junkyard and grab this part? please help. what wiring is needed between the compressor and the control head in my truck? thanks in advance.
