Randy, There is a fuse that should blow if the compressor stays on too long. That is what would happen with my '87 wagon when the KLIMA relay died and I needed AC for a long highway trip, so I rigged continuous power to the compressor. I think the fuse would only hold for about ten minutes. I had to wire in a switch, and cycle the compressor to keep the fuse from blowing. IIRC it was fuse #7.
