Hello All
It has been some time since you assisted me so I hope I am not posting and old question.
History
2 years ago I replaced all components of my ac system with the exception of fuses and relays.
system ran fine and registered 58 degrees at the register. ran vehicle for a complete summer season then retired it( We bought a expedition).
I just resurrected it and the ac clutch does not engage.
What I have done so far
1 Disconnected low pressure sw and clutch connector
2 shorted low pressure sw connector
3 started engine and turned on dash controls requesting max ac ( ac light turns on and blower fan energizes )
4 performed bench test on wot relay and it works fine
5 wot relay engages when plugged in
What I found with a volt meter
1 0 volts at clutch connector
2 with a pulled wot relay, 13v @relay socket pin 86 relay coil
3 3.6v @ pin 30
shouldnt there be 13v at pin 30 of the wot relay the common?
Also, there appears to be no connector lug or wire for wot relay pin 87 in the socket
