Taint necessarily so. The 86+ Westy A/Cs I have worked on did NOT have
all the stuff behind the cabinet that is found behind the panel in
passenger models. If anyone has actual correct wiring diagrams for the
Westy version A/C 86+ please let me know. The Westy A/C is a PIA to work
on due to the incorrect and missing info regarding component location
and wiring details.
