Can't find my compressor relay. Sign In

Hey, new here.
94 Chevy c1500 5.7
230000 mi.

Got a new compressor in hopes of that fixing the problem (compressor would not kick in). Didn't fix it. So its one of 2 things at this point: freon sensor or the relay. But I can't find where the relay even is!!! I looked all through my Haynes guide, but let's face it, it's not a chilton...

Any help on how to locate my relay?

You're probably way over your head here. There are dozens of reasons for the compressor not to kick in. You can also get yourself in a lot of trouble with incorrect charging and oiling procedures. A/C is not as simple as you may think and you can do a lot more damage than you already have.

You may give up when you find out where this relay is too. It's buried way under the dash, on top of the HVAC unit.

Disconnect the battery for 30 seconds & hook it back up...
