Hi,

I saw a post with you advising a guy with a similar problem like mine.

My AC stooped working and I have performed all the initial test and I can not figured out how to fix it.

I do not have problems with the electric fuses but the power doesn't not reach the AC Compressor.

Based on the below electric schema posted by you. Could you please let me know where is located that "optional connector", and if in your opinion this could cause the problem?

Thank you anticipated for your help.

Hello,

In the diagrams down below I have included a wiring diagram for your vehicle's A/C Circuit. Please with your vehicle running and the A/C turned on so the clutch sound be engaged on the compressor could you take a voltage reading at E8 of the under hood Fuse Relay Box. I have the wire highlighted for you in the diagram. You will need to use a multi-meter to do this and I have included a link for you to go to below if you are unfamiliar with how to use one.

Please get back to us with what you find out and we can go from there.

Thanks,
