Guess the part! One of the AC switches
 

Hey guys, not sure which AC switch is, so I figured I'd play a friendly game of ..... Guess this part!


Sorry for the quality didn't have time to bring out the slr -- Taken with a camera phone.

Forgot to mention it's in the driver side headlight corner.

is it the same as this thing?

what you show is shorter i know, but it might be different on the later car... plus, i cant tell if there's any vac lines coming out of the switch in your pic or not.....

it's the low pressure switch.

Thanks a lot -- I'll see if I can't get the freon finished....

Correct - if there isn't enough pressure in the lines it'll "lock out" the compressor circuit and prevent it from engaging. If the freon is low, the oil level in the system is also low. This switch prevents you from grenading your compressor trying to run it with inadequate lubrication.

There is a way to bypass it to add freon and oil to the system, simply run +12V to the compressor clutch wire.

all you need to do is bridge the two wires going to the switch.
