6000 V6-173 2.8L VIN W FI (1986)
The resistance of the vacuum solenoid relay coil is high and the resistance of the A/C compressor clutch coil is low. Therefore, when the vacuum
solenoid relay is energized (A/C off) the voltage drop across the A/C compressor clutch coil is low and is not sufficient to engage the clutch. The A/C
clutch coil also provides a good path for the vacuum solenoid relay coil, due to its low resistance.
