Trying to locate the low pressure switch for the a/c system, can't find anywhere. Have located low pressure port, high pressure port, and high pressure switch but can not locate the low pressure switch.

I believe the high pressure switch you are refering to is the pressure sensor which is mounted on a schrader valve. That is the only pressure sensor in system.

Yes, this uses a V5 (variable) compressor and doesn't have a cycling switch. It has a single, 3 wire sensor that the computer monitors with exact pressures.
