Which wire goes where!? - A/C OR BUST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

1) The thermoswitch has two wires going to it. One blue and one blue with a green stripe. Which wire goes on which terminal.
2) The refrigerant pressure switch has two wires going to it. One blue (i think) and one blue with a pink stripe. Which wire goes on which terminal.

Also, when I connect the wire to the terminal which in direction do the metal teeth on the connector go? On top of the terminal or on the bottom or does it matter? Does that make sense.

---my blower keeps cutting off. It worked before I took the a/c unit out but now that the a/c unit is back in it cuts off. Would any of these switches effect the blower.

And more, I didn't use compressor oil on the O rings when assembling the liquid pipes. Do you think it's going to leak?

Thanks for the help!

Those two switches could care less which wire is on which terminal.

The o'rings might be all right. Just don't ever do it again like that.

I doubt (read don't know for sure) that your blower cutting off has anything to do with the two switches. Explain just what cutting off means. On for a while then cuts off but comes back on by itself later? Or???

BLOWER

The blower will not come on itself after cutting off and I have to put it on high to get it to come on initially. Also, when I press the A/C button on the Logicon it does not light up and the compressor doesn't activate or do whatever it's suppose to do. Note: 1) I don't have freon in the system yet ---- 2) the system worked perfectly before I took it out (dumb me).

A/C OR BUST
THANKS FOR ANY HELP.

Sounds like the logicon may have the "cold solder joint" problem.

The high speed relay for the fan likes to scorch it's connector.

The compressor clutch will not pull on:
If the low pressure cut switch is open, or
the fan is off, or
the cigar fuse is bad, or
logicon problem.
Also all the above get their ground through the ECU where you get the 7 second AC cut at WOT.

I had to go to an AC shop to find the AC wiring schematic!
