Wiring diagram HVAC (Air Conditioning)

Hi gang,
I'm in search of a wiring diagram for the AC system on my 3.6 RHD M5. Apparently M5's are different to standard E34's

I have a problem with my AC where the switch/relay (whatever!) that turns off the compressor on full throttle is permanently engaged meaning I have no AC. For now we have by passed it with an attractive green wire running across the engine bay, but what I really need is the wiring diagram so we can find the fault and fix it.

Anyone know where I can get one?

Lots of good stuff. I believe I have finally tracked down the exact wires/connectors/plugs into the dash to get my oil temp gauge working. Pity I popped the donk first!

Give your low/high pressure switches a test...
it could well be the system is telling the truth & cutting out
with good reason..

Thanks Alan,
But if it was a pressure problem the bypass wouldn't work. We know why it is not working, we just need a way to trace what is causing it.
