[DML] AC system and temp sensor both drop dead at the same time?

["graves_144" <graves_14@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Ok, so I'm driving around and want to put on the AC. I turn the mode 
switch and nothing happens. No click in the relay compartment and no 
cooling fans. Normally the fans will go on with the compressor.

I look through the archives and find some info on diagnosing the 
temp sensor. Bypassing it turns on the fans. Apparently that is bad, 
so I need to replace that, but how can that be related to the 
compressor not going on with AC mode selected? Isn't that bypassed? 
I know it is bad because while messing with the car in the driveway 
it got above that line where the fans normally kick in. But again, 
that should be unrelated...

I have the shop manual, but the darn circuit for the AC doesn't have 
the component names listed. Does anyone have that handy? This is 
page M:18:19.

Is there a relay for the compressor clutch that could have blown up? 
I have the fan fail relay bypassed with the two fuse deal.
