Airmatic compressor wire harness
Has anyone tried to rewire the airmatic compressor from the engine bay fuse-relay block? Tracing back from the compressor to the engine relay block, the wire harness is so tight I dont think that I can repair the broken wires without removing the whole harness. Has anyone ever done this before? Without figuring out how to remove the whole harness I dont think this is possible without tearing apart half of the front of the car apart. Just throwing this out there?

WTF would you want to do that!!
I gave you the color and number of compressor wires------- test the wires and find the bad one and replace that one

I thought that removing and replacing the whole harness (just to the compressor) would eliminate any further wire problems. Anyhow, you said you gave me the color and number of wires? I did not see that post. Thanks again for your thoughts on this.

Plutoe, I finally fixed the problem wire. It was a wire on the smaller plug to the compressor. Thanks again for your help.
