This is part of the IPDM E/R. It does not appear to be serviceable. To confirm this, we need to check power coming out of the relay when this is acting up. If the power is coming and going then you are probably correct. However, if there is constant power, then your compressor is most likely the issue.
Let me know what questions you have after reviewing this. Thanks
According to the service manual the relay is internal to the IPDM. Unfortunately that means it is not servicable. Please let me know if you need more information. Thanks
On some cars they have it as a blower motor relay but is goes to the compressor that why it's so hard to find. Check out the diagrams (Below). Please let us know if you need anything else to get the problem fixed.
the ac relay switch is not allowing the car to cool from the inside and i have lost the original part to get the number off of it, to order another one, so what else can i do?

If this is the pin layout, there are plenty of generic models for sale that will work.

Good evening,
I attached a wiring diagram for you to view. Check the fuse in the fuse panel for power on both sides.
