A/C Clutch

The ECM indirectly controls the operation of the A/C clutch. If the ECM detects that the A/C switch has been turned on(A/C request), ECM signals the A/C control assembly. The A/C control assembly then grounds the coil circuit of the A/C clutch relay. The relay contacts close, allowing power to the A/C clutch.
