can you reiterated a bit?


So are you saying that everything inside is working but the a/c comp doesn't come online?

Have you checked the wiring and fuses for the compressor?

when i first got to looking at my a/c all the wires were worn or disconnected at the compressor.

Any sign of wiring changes?

Do you have a schematic?

Cheers

the a/c works have done more testing the comp cycles from 72deg up to 85 but 72 down to 65 it runs constant there is a micro switch or the servo that is causing it to run constant

Can't figure out what you're saying. Are you asking something or stating something?

Punctuation please ! :-)

Later tonight I'll look at the diagrams and try to help. But is the evap core icing up?
To the best of my knowledge the Ranco won't do anything unless the evap core ices.
