This system-mounted, adjustable cycling temperature switch drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications, including the 1967-1971 Ford Mustang, 1970-1977 American Motors Gremlin and Hornet, 1973-1979 Honda Civic, multiple 1981-1989 Mack DM, R, RD and U trucks, the 1972-1976 Mazda 808, and the 1967-1971 Mercury Cougar — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.
A cycling switch senses evaporator temperature through its capillary tube and opens or closes the circuit to the compressor clutch, cycling the compressor to regulate cooling and help keep the evaporator from icing over. If a failed cycling switch is the cause of a compressor that won't cycle or a system that freezes up, this replaces it.
Country of origin: China. Manufacturer part number 35820.
