[s-cars] A/C no workey

[Mark Strangways]

I suppose that the AC control head know enough about the conditions of the
refrigerant to turn the compressor off at the head.
I past models (to the best of my knowledge) it was all done after the
control head.
The low / high pressure switches both disabled the compressor with out
intervention of the control head unit.
I am not 100 % sure though.
