How to make AC work with your swap, aka: Need help with AC wiring thread Options

[lagos]

ok... so my AC hasnt worked since the swap and i figure now is a good time to wire that crap up. so i have my harness apart and im trying to look at the wiring diagrams to figure out a few things. seems like i need some help.

"ac amplifier" in the diagrams means the main AC compressor, correct?

on it, is a plug called A8 (looking at the 5sfe diagrams). the harness goes from there to a plug called IM1 and then 3 wires go to the ECU's 1st plug. where is IM1 located ? is it the white, 5 wire plug that goes from the 3s hanress, and plugs in right behind the glove box?

alright.... one more quick question. seems the AC wiring has changed in 90. 95 and 98 in the celica . why? who the hell knows.

the AC has a plug (A4) with 4 wires on it.
pin numbe 3's function is labled as "VC" . what does this DO? whats its function inside the AC compressor?

the reason why i ask, is that in a 95 celica, you would hook this up to plug IM1 pin 3, and the it would go to the AC AMP. problem is, this they removed this pin from the 98 IM1 plug and its function (MGV?) dosnt seem to exist on the AC amp! im guessing i can just skip this wire... but i want to know what it does, before i eliminate it.
