I'm look­ing for A/C evap­o­ra­tor temperature sen­sor lo­ca­tion and di­a­gram. Can't find any­thing about where or if it has one.

Don't see anything in service data that says it has one and nothing on the circuit diagram.

So, how does the computer know if the A/C is freezing up, someplace there is one. No mechanic knows anything about it. So pathetic.

It controls the temperature through timed cycles and pressure switches. No thermal control through anything other than the pressure switches and the cycling switch. It's a common system used on imports and earlier domestics that didn't monitor the cores. There is no thermal sensor on that vehicle.
