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?

hmm... ok 2 wires should be to activate the magnetic clutch. And im guess the 2 other wires are sensors? I know there's this one sensor that reads if the compressor is spinning. This will help protect the compressor if there is something cuasing the compressor to be stuck.. But the thing i dont know, is if it's on your car, cuase they did eliminate this later on. Hmm, ill try to find out the name of this, cuase i can't remember, but i'll prolly have time, since my flight is going to be crazy delayed. stupid LAX airport has no electricity.
