So here's my issue,
I'm putting a 13bt into my fj60 and at that point where I want to hook up the A/C. The option i'm hoping will work is to use the 24V compressor on the 13bt and feed a signal to it to throw the magnetic clutch with the push button stock A/C electronics of my 86 Fj60.
The issue is that the amplifier in the fj60 wants a signal from the igniter telling it the motor is running. I was told that you could turn the RPM's down on the amp and it'd bypass that feature but I don't think it's working. I put my voltmeter on the lead heading to the compressor and am looking for 12v (is that what I'm looking for?). I get between 12-132mV depending where the amp is on the dial. I'm guessing the proper signal isn't getting to the amp from the igniter.
Can someone help me with what I should be expecting to get for a signal at the lead to the clutch.
Here's my idea of the amp won't work. Build a tone generator that'll simulate the signal from the amplifier when the ignition is on and trick it to thinking I'm a gasser.....
thanks a bunch,
mike
