Re: 1995 Cutlass Ciera AC

I am back...it has been a long while. The AC is fixed. I replaced the wire from the PCM to the A/C compressor clutch relay including new terminals at the PCM side and the relay side. I also did some diagnostics on the secondary fan relay...which is supposed to engage when A/C is selected. I tested the wire from the pcm to the secondary fan relay. It showed no resistance (.000). I replaced it anyway and what do you know...the compressor clutch kicked on. I also discovered a bad crimp connection in the wire leading from the compressor clutch relay and the compressor plug. I appreciated the patience and help to a novice (at best) budding mechanic (I use that term in the loosest sense).

I do have a new question/request. I am looking to replace the battery cables both negative (which is no problem) and positive which has been discontinued. It is an unusual cable (GM 12157254). It has the wire that leads to the starter but it also has a secondary wire that splits into 3 fusible links (one leading to the ignition, one leading to the Anti lock brake relay and not sure where the other leads but shouldn't be hard to figure out). Is anyone aware of a source for that type of positive battery cable? If not is there a "work around" using a more conventional positive battery cable.

Thank you in advance for any assistance.
