Hello all. I’m brand new to the forum, any help would be appreciated. I can’t seem to get the AC clutch to engage. I have jumped it and it engages. Can someone please tell me where the pink/light blue, black with yellow, black wires connect. I have a new 2 wire pigtail.

Here's the diagram. Leaves the clutch connector and goes right to a diode resistor assembly. From there it goes to the low pressure switch on the dryer can.

Thank you very much. Do you have a pick of where the pink/tb (mine looks almost tan) wire goes? I just can’t find any loose wires on the dryer can.

Does the compressor engage when you jump the 2 wires at the low pressure switch?

Yes. It engages when jumped at low pressure switch. There are the 3 wires in the loom and I can’t figure out where the third Pk/Lb wire goes. Thank you.

If you can jump it at the low pressure and it engages then the system likely needs charged, or the low pressure switch is bad.

The pink/lightblue goes to the computer for the E4OD. If you have a manual transmission, it may be just hanging there from the factory. My 89 has something that looks like a MAP sensor on the firewall, but it came from the factory with a c6. Never have figured that out, but the factory did some weird things sometimes.

Thank you all very much. I think I might have figured it out. The loom came cut in half so I’m just chasing down the proper wiring. I do have a E4OD. Any pics to where it plugs in would be gold. I’m an idiot when it comes to the wiring diagrams.
