Works with direct power now, only left to figure out why the connector has no power on it. All the relays seem to be fine but which one is it for me that runs the magnetic clutch? I cant seem to find any pics of the relay box that match mine, car is 1996 actually.

There's a good selection in the FAQs section :y

K60 is one of the green ones, can substitute with horn relay under dash to test... Identical relays... Alternatively bridge the relay sockets to see if it engages :y

Ah ok, was part of the conundrum on the proper Omega, although that turned out to be fuse related ::)

Well everything solved and AC working like a charm now.

I checked the connector by using both the connectors on the plug but it never crossed my mind to check by grounding somewhere else until now.
And indeed the plug was getting power when AC was on but it had no ground on the second wire for some reason.

Also there is a weird resistor before the AC plug between the two wires, I will post a pic later once the upload service I use is working again...
EDIT:

Glad to hear it's sorted - that component is a diode to absorb the back EMF from the solenoid when it disengages.

Yep, standard Harrison compressor from memory, the only issue is the threads being imperial (if the grey cells are working ok!)
 

Harrison V5, bits available from USA, if you can find someone willing to ship them.
