ECU ac switch pin

Hello, ive done some searching, and came across a couple post's with ecu pins, however I can't seem to find the one I need. I am looking for the ac pin on which I can intercept that line with a switch, so I can raise my idle a bit for my trailer winch. I ran a wire from the battery to the back with a plug so I can tow car's on my trailer without needing another battery on the trailer, etc.

Without me having to hold my foot on the gas, I was thinking if I can ground this signal, tricking the ecu to thinking the ac is on, itll raise my rpm's enough for the winch.

Thanks.

Well I found it, but how am I suppose to actually use that to increase engine rpm with a switch? It is vacuum controlled. I need something electronic. . .

If you need to raise your rpm to winch a car on a trailer you have to small of a battery.

it also would be a big help to say just what your working on:jessica:

edit to add: I just noticed you screen name and avitar. It looks like you have a 1995 truck. The parts fiche link and comments I posted are for up to an 1988 truck.

The A/C idle-up is vacuum controlled already via that electronic switch. The switch switches the vacuum on or off to the idle-up diaphragm according to the needs of the air conditioner.

Tap into that switch to trigger it. You'll have to determine if it is positive or negative switching.
