A/C Compressor Cut-Out

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2000 Mercedes-Benz C230. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The A/C-heater control panel receives a speed signal from the A/C compressor speed sensor. If the A/C compressor is seized or hard to turn, the drive belt is protected by disengaging the A/C compressor. The A/C compressor clutch receives voltage directly from the A/C push button control module (A/C-heater control panel).
