RE: a/c help
On mine, there are three wires to this plug/socket. I got it to come on by jumpering all three together. I already told you though, that if you haveenough refrigerant in there andthe compressor doesn'tcycle on, either the switch or clutch is messed up.

Yes. It was tough, as I didn't have anything useful to do it. I managed to get it to kick on a few times though.

It's pretty much a pressure sensor. I refer to it as a switch because it is basically in control of kicking the compressor on or off. It is located in a refrigerant line right by the shock tower on the passenger side. Should be the only thing in the line with wires going to it.

No. If you plug the plug onto the pressure switch/sensorand your compressor doesn't kick on, it's likely the pressure switch, low refrigerant, or the a/c clutch. You said you had enough refrigerant in there, so that narrows it down to two possible problems. By doing the jumper, you can narrow it down from there. If it kicks on with the jumper/s installed, it's the pressure switch/sensor. If it still won't kick on, it's likely the a/c clutch.
