Do they make a connector that plugs into one of these air pressure switches?

go to the local pick-n-pull and check out any GM to early 90's with AC. that sure looks the same as any AC clutch cutout switch on the drier.

If you can't find what you want just make one by using two spade connecters.

Like what gary said, make your own or if you REALLY want. Four seaons and ac delco sell the clutch cycle switch connector which will plug right over one of those pressure switches.

Option one is easier

+1 on the above. I used to design wiring harnesses for heavy truck and off-highway equipment. A connector is available, but finding an oddball connector like that, new, in a consumer retail place, is very difficult (for OEMs, however, it's a completely different story, esp. if you are buying in high volumes).

If you can identify its use on any piece of equipment (from a car or truck to industrial air compressor), you may be able to go into the parts department of the equipment maker or car dealer and get a replacement connector, typically sold in a pigtail configuration (connector shell, terminals installed, with about 6" of wire for splicing into the existing harness) for service repairs.

As stated above, searching boneyards is the best bet. Final long-shot option is to obtain a "sample" (wink wink) part if you know somebody in the OEM world that has connections with the suppliers (sorry, I'm not in that business any longer)!

If that is the same spacing as the AC switch, go to a NAPA and have them break out the big book and you can order a new one with a pigtail. If lucky enough to have one of the napa warehouses, they will have it in stock.
