Re: 86 chevy Camaro ac clutch cycling switch

Right: power in that version comes from the control head via the green wire to the low-pressure switch, then to the power steering cutoff switch via the blue wire, then to the control module & compressor relay.

I'd suggest getting another one of that connector at the junkyard, rather than trying to splice to wires that short. The same connector is on MILLIONS of vehicles from that era.

You weren't listening. You don't need "this vehicle". ANY GM vehicle from the 80s will have that connector; trucks, full-size, FWD econoboxes, … ALL of em. They ALL used the same low-pressure cutoff switch. (the thing that connector connects to)

blue goes to the compressor its self then?
