As a first guess, I'd say that the windings on the compressor clutch
magnet might be shorted (at least partially). You could get the
pulley/clutch assembly off a salvage yard car and try it.
Parts out in the moving/vibrating/oil-covered/dirty end of
things experience failures. Clutch coils,
resistance?

Any chance the problem is in the horn circuitry, or even
just put a voltmeter
on the powered wire and look for zero ohms resistance?
Thanks,K

I'm no genius when it comes to checking for shorts; do I just put a
voltmeter on the powered wire and look for zero ohms resistance?
An ohmmeter would be better. But yes, that's basically how you
start. But look for obvious physical damage to the wiring first.

Hello All,
My 1985 123 wagon had a fully functional A/C until I used it one hot day last
fall, when it kept the entire car of six people cool on a 100 degree LA day. No
problems on that day whatsoever.
The following day, I loaned the car to my sister, who turned the A/C on and
, well, nothing

the relevant fuse, which was blown, but the new fuse blew
You might also want to check the low-pressure cutout switch that (if I
recall) is located down low in front of the right fender next to the
radiator. If that has gone bad/funky nothing will come on. You could
just short it and see if things come on. Probably doesn't relate to the
horn
; will keep list posted until I get the issue resolved.

Any chance the problem is in the horn circuitry, or even the contacts/wiring in
the steering column?
