I'm suppose to replace the relay for the A/C compressor, but I'm not sure where it's located on the car. Can you help me out here?

your vehicle's A/C compressor control relay is located on the left side of the firewall, to the left of the brake booster.

Ok, I found what you are talking about as to the three relays on the left side of the firewall, but I'm not sure which one it is. I included a picture of the setup in my car.

Well I've just tried all but one relay and the clutch on the compressor still won't engage when the A/C is turned on. When I checked the wires that ran to the compressor I had no juice from them. I figured it was the relay, but it could be a pressure valve. Any help here?

Sorry, I'm not big on A/C systems. I will inform the other 2CarPro Techs to see what they can come up with for you though.

Thanks for helping out. Saves me time and money, both of which I have little of to work on my car.
