There is a small relay under the dash board. Access to it from the glove box and is located in the left hand side area. This sends a signal to the clutch to turn on when the switch is activated and also (I believe)in conjunction with the switch controls the tempeture. Make sure this is operating. Mine was always blowing straight air and I had to convert to the r14 type, fairly simple to do, all parts bought at a local auto store. Hard part was properly disposing of my old r12 refrigerant (sp)Check out your condersore, make sure no leakes. even very small ones.

hope it helps
