this is my problem,when i turn on my air, the clutch doesn't work but when i connect it to the battery, it works,there seems to be no current coming from the connector, so my question is, is there a fuse or relay that controls the current to the connector to make the clutch work on my compressor? there is freon in it and the compressor is new.

 

there is a switch that kicks it on and off. should be on the pass. side in back of the silver canister. youll see a wire with a plug connecting to it. this switch activates the clutch with the cycle. if it is bad the clutch wont kick in. my car was fully charged and the clutch would shut off at the lights and a steady cruise. replaced switch now i freeze. lol

 

you mean the switch that is on the canister in back of it?i'll go buy the switch tomarrow, hopefully it will work, thanks third gen 87.

 

Hey, where did you get the switch? I need one two. I have mine jumpered, I think its just a pressure switch.
