on one van.............those switches where behind upholstery material in
the back of the closet.
Making some small strategic slits for access was tempting.
I have seen some vans where the switches were not there, but evidently,
somewhere else.

If you remove the shelf or shelves in the back part (cabinet part by the
back door, not the hanging locker) you can then remove the little enclosure
box to gain access to the electrical and hoses.

I'm trying to do some electrical troubleshooting on my early "86 Westy
camper.  Can anyone tell me how I can get to the low-pressure switch and the
A/C relay?  From what I've been able to find in the archives and other
places it appears to be at the "D" pillar behind the closet.  But it
is
beyond me to figure out how to get to it.

Thanks
