No voltage to a/c compressor
I have checked and tested every fuse in the block under the dash.
Guess i'll check the heat-a/c control in the dash next.
Am I forgetting to check something?

Re: No voltage to a/c compressor
Yup, a bad pressure switch (or no pressure in the A/C lines) will cause a no-power situation at the compressor clutch.

Which switch is bad? The low pressure cycling switch in the drier or the high pressure switch in the back of the compressor? The first one would be easy to replace (and they do tend to go bad often).
