A Newlife for the Newport

Hello,

I have a 1970 Chrysler Newport with the manual AC system.. the AC has always blown cold. Still filled with r12.

This season I noticed the AC doesn’t blow cold anymore. The compressor clutch simply wont engage. Under the assumption my r12 didn’t leak out , what should I do to troubleshoot this myself? is there a fuse, and or relay for the clutch? If so, what is the fuse # and relay location? Any input is appreciated.

Not mine but a very close look a like. *drooling*
