Sanden 508 Wiring

[VetteVet]

Look at the 1 minute mark and the clutch only has the single black wire. He says the coil is grounded so the black wire has to be the hot wire for the green to connect to. If you have a voltmeter measure the ohms between the black wire and the coil. If you get some resistance then you are reading the coil windings resistance and the black wire is the hot wire and the coil is grounded to the compressor body.

Thank you I think we are in the same page and I’ll do some testing this afternoon. But it would be awesome if you link directly to a YouTube video I’m fairly sure my yahoo isn’t pulling up the same video. Another question closely related would y’all know what this little connecting wire with a black ball(see picture attached) on it is because if dark green is power and black is ground they shouldn’t be connected right?

See if this works.

This information would be very useful to me as well. VetteVet, could you please give a direct link to YouTube? The multitude of videos the Yahoo link throws up all seem generally useful, but a direct link to the video you mention specifically is close to exactly what I'm also looking for.
