Default 92 A/C question.

My 92 A/C doesn't seem to work. I have the auto climate and when I run the diagnostic it comes back with a 00 code for all good. Is there a relay for the A/C clutch and if so anyone have a Pic of its location?

The fuse is good.

Behind under dash, also note the diagram below about programmer logic loss sometimes prevent compressor activation. may be worth disconnecting reconnecting battery if nothing obvious?

1992 Clutch Relay is on the rear of the Left wheel housing, ahead of the battery. If there are 2 relays, the clutch relay is the one that does NOT have a blue wire in it.

gerardvg's images are for 1990-91. 92-up, the location goes under the hood.

Has it ever worked under your ownership? Does it even have any pressure? If you're not dealing with a "just stopped working" situation, I'd start with a set of gauges and see if you're even dealing with a sealed system still. 9/10 when people sell a car without working AC, it's because the system has leaked out.
