1990 F250 AC I have power to the dryer but none at the compressor. Jumped the plug at the dryer still nothing. Hot wired the compressor and it runs. Other then a bad wire what could it be?
I have a Haynes Book here with thier wire diagram in. From what i can tell the hot wire goes from the preasure switch to a clutch resister diode and then to the compressor. So two questions: Where can I look for this diode and the second do i really need it or can i run the wire from the preassure switch to the compressor. Bet you get a laugh out of that one.

Follow your wires out, somewhere after the low pressure switch on your drier there is a clutch resistor diode. It is in the circuit between the pressure cutout switch and the compressor clutch. That sounds like the culprit.
