If I hold the AC button down on the dash, AC works as normal. Let go and the compressor disengages. Is it the button or a relay?

Yes, it sounds like the button switch is bad.

That is going to be built into the Control head assembly. You nhave to remove the outer bezel first and then the assembly is screwed in. https://www.2carpros.com/images/external/79348598.jpg.gif
