OK awhikle back I posted about my ac working except on HI speed. Low and medium are fine, but this Arizona and they're not worth a crap. I replaced the switch, the relay, AND the fan. HI speed still doesn't work! Am I missing something here? My test light is less than desirable so it isn't helping me much. By the way, I ran a jumper from the battery straight to the fan (for hi speed). It runs great.
 
OK, I put two and dos together, got 5.........I figured I'd attack a bunch of wires thsat were all taped together. Traced a blue wire from the relay to a connector on the plastic box everything is attached to. I pulled the thing out and it was a "buss" setup with springs coiled at the end connecting the buss together. I worked everything all back and forth and sprayed some lectrakleen on it and now the hi speed is kickin ass!!! At least I know where it is now. Thanks for the help!
 
Good to see you figured it out! It's been bugging you for a while now. /forums/images/graemlins/waytogo.gif
 
It you want a serious A/C for the hot Arizona desert sun, then try one of these on for size. These are built for medium size trucks, and cost about $1200. They mount on to the roof of your vehicle like a motor home A/C does. I live in Las Vegas, and want to get one for my 1-Ton 4X4 Crew Cab one day; although, I will have to cut a hole in my roof to install this self contained A/C unit. it will be worth it on a hot 123 degree summer day here in Las Vegas. Because this unit is self-contained, and comes with its own compressor, condenser, and receiver dryer, it will take off the load and heat A/C creates on an engine.

I thought about installing one of those on the rear portion of the Burb, as i did the 134 conversion, and it doesn't work worth a crap, i wish i had never done the conversion.
