That looks like its worth an investigation on my car. IF I get speedlines our cars will be twins! Thanks again.

Got back to project 965 and first and foremost is this AC problem. I tested the relay with my multimeter and put power to it and it works. So the relay is not the problem. I next put power to pins 30 and 87 and the compressor clutch "clicked" so the clutch works and it is getting power. I am thinking the only thing left is low freon, however, the system was just rebuilt with a new condenser and charge a couple of months ago. Is there anything I am missing here? Been searching the 964 forum and I am at an impasse.

Does the compressor engage when you press the snowflake button on the climate control?

The clutch does not engage but the light goes on. I am going to bring it in as I have a couple of small things that need to be tackled as I put the car back together. I am hoping to have it look as good as yours although I am running the stock wheels! With the newly painted plastic bits and new seals the car looks fantastic.

Either the fuse is blown or there is low refrigerant pressure.

I am going to bring it in as I want that checked out and also because I had to cut the exhaust tip off I need that refitted. With that in mind, the car is 99% back together and am in the process of doing a solid paint correction here. Nothing crazy, compound, polish, wax and from the results so far it looks amazing. I ran out of polish though so am waiting on that. One question, I ordered new rock guards for the rear fenders and rear lower rocker panel from Pelican Parts. I didn't want to spend the stupid money on the OEM film and bought these instead. Fitment is not perfect (the lower pieces are too big) and overall looks a little thin. Anyone have experience with these before I install?
