It's not the compressor I am replacing, it's the compressor clutch assembly I am replacing. I'm leaving the compressor on the car which is the original compressor that came on the vehicle. If I had bought a compressor, it would have been the right one, I can see how they are the same when I look at the pictures, but I did not buy the compressor. I bought the clutch assembly.
The clutch assembly does not connect with the wire running from the wire harness coming from the vehicle. Also, I don't know if you can see the pictures that I posted along with my comment about the wires coming out of the compressor. My question is, why doesn't my new clutch that I bought from AutoZone from the store connect and why is it different? I'll try to send those pictures again because I don't think they went through. I will also send you a picture of the stamp that's on the back of my compressor but remember it is not the compressor that I am replacing, it is the clutch assembly on the front of the compressor that whole part on the front. Also attached is a picture of the clutch assembly number which is 47989 and that happens to be the only one that comes up when looking for a clutch for my year and model car.
If they come up in order the first photo is a picture of the new compressor attachment and how the middle part is on the right instead of the left and it has no Center plastic divider on the inside. The second picture is the attachment coming straight from the compressor and you notice how the metal part is on the left side and it also comes from the inside of the compressor to which the fourth photo points out with an arrow. The green sticker is on the back of my original compressor that came on my vehicle.
