Klaus,

I was really hopeful but the two suggestions did not work on my car. Just to make sure I did everything right, I shaped a paperclip into the shape of a very skinny "U", unplugged the connector and put the ends of the paperclip into the connector. All of this I did with the engine on and the ac on. Also with the engine running and ac on, I tapped the center of the ac clutch with a screw driver from underneath. It did not engage.

I saw what I think is another switch and connector on a smaller line that runs next to the line in front where the freon is added. Is the same thing possible with this connector or is it a danger because it might be the high side? There also was an electrical connector that is clamped on the side of the compressor towards the front of the car. Is this a connection to check?

Thanks,

George
