I need to charge the AC, but the dryer does not have a pressure valve (like in every other car I know). Can someone tell me where it is, and if possible, send me a picture of it?
Thanks.

Anybody?

Do you mean the high/low pressure cut off switch?

 

[JCHalfa]

Correct. I have always seen these attached to the dryers in other cars.

My car is a Spider S3, 1986 model. I need to know the location of the pressure switch on a factory, stock vehicle. Thanks.

S3 Spiders did not have a pressure switch.

S3 Spiders did not have a pressure switch.

The 1990 Series 3.5 and 91-94 series 4 spiders have A/c trinary pressure switch on receiver dryer according to shop manuals but 86 manual does not show one for series 3.

I thought my friends 88 Quad has it but I maybe mistaken. Car not near me now to check on it.

series 3.5 (MY1990 in the USA) is basically the motronic injected engine from the S4 (less power steering) in a S3 body.

the trinary (pressure) switch is mounted on the receiver/dryer

numbers #7 & #8 in this page from the parts book:
