Dealer Installed A/C

I have a small problem. I am helping restore this truck for my step son and the A/C is not working. We live in Arizona so A/C is super important unless you like haveing an attractive sweat stain on your back and passing out in the parking lot.

It has dealer installed A/C and factory heating. I found the problem. When I move the lever over from defrost to heat to A/C it contacts another lever when in A/C mode. When it hits this lever it engages the A/C and disengages the heat.

The switch/resister thing is broken. Anyone know what it is called or where I can find one? I called ford and they said they had one but when I looked at the online picture it looks completely different.

Thanks guys/gals!

You're system's more complete then mine(the canister is missing on mine somehow; go figure) but first place I would start is the junk yard. I know Arizona and socal's got lots of em(use to live out near Barstow for 17+ years). Another option would be to take a look at lmctruck.com - they sell OEM parts and accessories. Good luck to you.
