Ive looked around but most of the downloads I find are for the '84. Thanks to the LV Fiero Club VP, found that after my 7730 swap somehow something was goofed even though I followed the swap info from sinister. The A/C system functioned properly with the 7170 ECM. Also found the flyback resistor on the compressor clutch plug was broken off, ugh. I need to replace the plug with another one, and make sure the ECM is triggering the clutch relay like it should. Im looking for the complete A/C system wiring diagram so I dont mess anything up. Also, the trigger wire from the ECM(iirc F1 on the 7730) is a ground trigger, right? Im also swapping in another 7730 after Im completly sure that the wiring is GTG.

Thanks

There is a stack of other diagrams at http://cowspatoot.com/fiero/wiring in case that one doesn't get everything you need.

Thanks cows patoot(lol).

the wiring diagram came in handy to test the A/C clutch relay and if the ECM is triggering it.

found the flyback diode was missing from the a/c clutch plug, replaced it with a new one.

just tried triggering the relay and the relay closes, but doesnt excite the clutch.

measured voltage across the the relay and found 12.7V at the black/wht stripe wire(to the high pressure switch?) and 12.7V at the green wire going down to the clutch.

so im at a loss right now, only thing I can figure is there is a short in the clutch coil, the relay seemed to be heating up pretty good. thats the only thing I can figure.

the A/C worked last fall before I swapped to the 7730 ECM, so something happend between then and now. I know for sure that the ECM is actuating the relay though.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

$8D does NOT control A/C clutch relay, so a patch must be written. That is all for now....

You can bypass the ECM by simply grounding the blue wire (that originally went to C2 at the ECM). This will allow your AC to work, but obviously will eliminate the ECM's ability to control it. The relay will still be controlled manually by the HVAC controls in the dash. This is how the carb guys do it if they want to keep their AC.

I refuse to answer the high pressure switch question...I am not an AC expert. As long as you never hit a high pressure situation, then it should be safe to bypass it...but since I am not an expert, I can't tell you how common that situation is.

just found out that the 7727 $8D has the controls(corvette). Trigger wire is supposed to be at F3

*edit* It works now, splice into E8 with added pin at D3.

Cannot seem to reach cowspatut. Really need some good 87 Fiero HVAC wiring schematics. Someone at some point snipped all the wires to the connector plugs, and removed the HVAC relay in the engine compartment. I have to recreate all this. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
