AC relay location

Post by dpetepiece »

AC suddenly stopped when I was a full throttle passing a car and then did not turn back on once the throttle was lowered.
I have no power to the compressor clutch. Cooling fan does not start when AC dash switch is pushed on.
I am trying to identify the relay which kicks the AC clutch on and likely starts the cooling fan.
The underhood fuse/relay box cover is not clear on which relay is the one.
Can anyone point me to the correct relay.
Manual says to swap with horn relay.

The wiring diagram I use is from a Corolla, and it says it's named the "MG/CLT" relay. It looks the same as the horn relay, so a swap should work out.
