Precisely. I did snake up under the dash and find the wiring to the evap temp sensor and unplugged it. The compressor disengaged when I did that so, it could be that I'm just experiencing normal operation...it is hot (>98°) today. Also, my wagon's a/c compressor stays engaged 100% of the time if the temp is above 95° or so but I've had so much trouble with this thing, I'm decidedly gun shy about this unit.

But, after jumping the big a/c hurdle, I'm spending today on the interior. I have the seats out and am heading to the store in a minute to get a shampoo machine and try to get the carpets somewhat clean. Jeez that thing is nasty on the inside.
