96 chevy Tahoe A/C clutch is not working correctly. (Strange problem)
That is correct the high side switch is the only one at the compressor on the line mounting block. I can’t remember both of the wire colors but one was dark green and white. The other was a dark color too, I think. I left plenty of wire on both the connecter and harness to reuse if needed. Most...- Sarcastic_cook

Ok so it was not the high side switch either. When you said that both switches where located on the on top of the compressor I thought that was just a general location for Chevy. In this truck the low side switch is on the accumulator and the high side is on the compressor. So anyway...- Sarcastic_cook

Thanks for the info. I will look further into that. I used a scale to be sure the correct amount of refrigerant was added. This is actually the second one that I have seen with this problem. I did not know that the wires went through the high side switch too. If it is the high side switch is...- Sarcastic_cook
