Get to the wiring in the rear "D" pillar as other have indicated. The double
relay can drop out as it over heats. Look for the melted wiring that often
happens.

Subject: AC cutting out momentarily

AC stops for a second or two. Just one time at first, now a few times in a
row.
Blower fan stops then comes back on.
I rebuilt all hoses 2 years ago (kept to R12, new dryer, etc); system has
blown cold ever since.
Is this a sign of low freon pressure or more likely a fan electrical fault?
How to Diagnose? Late rear Westy factory AC system (87).
Thanks
