[AMC-List] Need help t/s ac problem on 83 Spirit

["John Elle" <johnelle@xxxxxxxxx>]

Tom, Marty
I am not sure that there is a low pressure safety switch to jump. I have
never seen one on an AMC A/C unit. I only have data on AMC A/C up
through 1980. I would imagine 1983 is the same although I do not know
when the rotary A/C compressor was first used although I have one in my
parts stash along with the hardware to mount it on my Spirit if I ever
need it. I think I can locate an A/C wiring diagram as a J-Peg if needed
that can be e-mailed to someone if they think they need it. 
(no promises but I will look if asked)

Assuming there is nothing else wrong, you might need to jumper
the low-pressure safety switch to get the compressor to pump
the freon into the system. Once you get it close to right you
can remove the jumper. I assume you have the right oil charge
and all that.
