AC compressor magnetic clutch wire
#1
#3
is the wire connected to (i believe) the green wire coming from the cars wire harness (it'll have a round connector)
#4
generally starting at the alternator, the wire goes to the pressure switch on the bottom manifold on the condensor at the radiator, then from there it goes to the pressure switch on the AC Dryer/reciever (beer can looking thing near the firewall) and from there it goes to the dashboard A/C control switch. the dashboard outputs 12V to activate the compressor, both pressurestats have to be closed to complete the circuit, and 12V goes to the clutch to fire it.
how did you determine this wire is grounded? the clutch itself is a fairly low resistance to ground, maybe 20 or 50 ohms or something, but not 0 ohms.
