OK - after testing it myself, I took my van and switch to  a real auto
electric shop and he said no power is going to the switch.

All the fuses on the front fuse panel are ok.

He printed the wiring diagram and gave it to me (as my Bently goes to 84
and my van is an 85) (does anyone have the one which includes 85 for
sale?)

We nosed around in the back and didn't find any other fuses.

He noted there might be a relay - does anyone know where that is?

My mechanic had hot wired the compressor and said it was fine - just
needed recharging.

We think we recharged it.

I think, from what some kind people on the list have told me, that it is
too old for the low pressure switch.

One one question is - where does the power come from that powers the
switch?

I'm leaving Monday for the long hot drive and would love to figure this
out!

I did finally find more stuff in the archives when searching under names
and "a/c" but not all!

This would be a great topic for a summary, or maybe even a book!

Also, on the T2 list there is a 1979 van for sale in CT.
