Where is this wire supposed to go?

Post by jb »

One day it will be hot again!
Maybe I am imagining that the air conditioning seems to work ok although I am not sure how it can as there is this wire (see below) that goes nowhere.
Does anyone have any idea where it is supposed to go?

It operates the electromagnetic cluth on the a/c pump. There should be a loose lead somewhere to the right.....

Thanks - I will look.
Do you know what the effect is of the clutch not being operational?

The clutch electrically disconnects the drive to the compressor. This turns the AC ON/OFF.
