Have you tried the evaporator temp sensor? If you do wire in a switch, the evaporator will freeze up at highway speeds on long trips and you will have to manually turn off the compressor with the switch and then turn it back on after it thaws. Kind of a Pita. I went through this on mine, and the problem was that some previous owner had removed the evaporator temp sensor. It only takes a few minutes to pull the sensor out. I believe you can jump over the sensor switch, but you may want to check the manual to be sure of that. BTW, what part of the new control unit doesn't work?
