Throw all of those diagrams in the garbage and come back with codes. No one has a clue where to start with you.

My understanding is that the car had been diagnosed, codes read then and pointed to the compressor that was changed but that did not fix the issue. Sometimes codes alone are not perfect. If the compressor valve drive voltage was measured, it would indicate if the drive signal is present. If not present, the problem would be elsewhere, not the new compressor. Simple multimeter measurements are often very useful along with the diagnostic tool. Also fault codes are only a small subset of information from the diagnostics tool. Control unit inputs and outputs can be read and controlled to test different functionality and the plausibility of inputs can be evaluated.

Were you able to solve this? I'm having the exact same issue and I'm not going to spend thousands first assuming its automatically the compressor. Need the wiring diagram for my W222.
