     The Control Head is the principle unit in the system, it's
     the purdy thang with the LED display. The programmer is
     the one with all the vacuum lines and the control cable
     located above the passenger side footwell, but when it's
     bad, the system defaults to maximum defrost, so the
     compressor should be kicked in at this point. There is
     also a refrigerant pressure switch, WOT switch, and
     a few other things that can cause a compressor not
     to kick in.

     This is one of the few times that the Bentley excells
     in diagnostic explanation.  It goes through in very
     clear detail how to check all the components of the
     system and come up with the culprit for whatever isn't
     functioning in the AC system. Beg, borrow or steal a
     copy, you'll be happy you did.
