I think the ISCU just notices the drop in RPM from the AC and compensates for it. The only thing connected to the ISCU in that way is the power steering pressure switch. See Bentley 97.107.

The AC is 97.140 & 141 and there is no connection back to the ISCU. The only thing the AC relay tells is the radiator fan--to kick on low speed, at least.
