Replying to my own email on this. I finally did find the wiring diagram
of the AC system in the Bentley (97.137-97.145). I don't have any
trouble reading the diagrams in the Bentley, but I sure do seem to
have trouble finding the correct diagram to read.
Another lister cautioned me that trying to force the compressor clutch
to engage may be an expensive exercise in compressor replacement. Point
very well taken. The compressor is probably not engaging because the
system doesn't have enough charge to turn on the low pressure safety
switch. On to diagnose the problems charging the low pressure side
of the system, methinks.
