Default 73 Coupe AC Wiring Schematic

Can someone send me or post an AC wiring schematic for a 73 coupe or tell me where I might find one?

It will have the wiring for the connections to te AC. Some vendors also sell laminated wiring diagrams, which are helpful too.

Your 73 might be the same.

These are great but they do not include the AC wiring.

I appreciate you posting the schematic but it appears there are some differences between the 73 and 74. I have a single wire that plugs into the back side of the compressor. I believe it is called the superheat switch. I do not have a high pressure cut off switch as shown in your schematic. I don't know if it was removed or the superheat switch works the same way. Hopefully someone can post a schematic for a 73.
