AC compressor

[JJhammer]

okay, had to replace my ac compressor last week with a new one. The new ones as well as the rebuilt do not come with the low and high pressure sensors as far as I know. I attempted to take mine out of the old compressor. One came out, one did not. I bought two new ones at Advance auto (universal replacements) but my eclectrical fittings do not work with them. Also it seems that even my connection to the compressor clutch is a poor fit. Is there I way I can rewire everything myself from the battery? I thought the hard part would be replacing the comprssor itself but I was wrong.
Thanks for the help!

Check with your GM dealer for rewire plug in.
Get the right pressure sensors.
If dealer does not have plugin check your local bone yard.
Also some plugins can be repaired.

I would have used the ac compressor with the correct sensors already installed , with the proper connectors. or get a scrap yard one of the exact same part .

..what year, what engine?
on my '93 3.8 hi and lo pressure sensors are not on compressor.... the 3.1 and 3.8 did not use the same compressor ...

1993 with the 3.1 engine. Everything is installed but I have no power to the compressor plug now. I will check the wiring tomorrow. Hopefully I get it fixed before the heat comes. I am thinking that I should have taken it to the local shop now, but I am sure they would have charged me mega bucks. Thanks for the help!
