I am hooking up my A/C after swapping motors. The A/C worked before the motors were swapped. The wires have been all taped up for many months. The problem is that I can't get a signal (12 V) at the compressor clutch connector. With the key on and with motor running I can turn the A/C switch and get air from the blower and the radiator fan runs. But there is no voltage at the clutch connector. I have located the relays in the Westy closet but have no schematics to go by. The "clutch relay" looks like it is normally closed and does have continuity. Is there a wiring diagram somewhere? I can't find it in the Bentley. Am I correct in assuming that the compressor should engage right away? Thanks Tom Salicos '87 Syncro Westy EG-33 |
