The defrost setting also turns on the a/c compressor.

Seriously, I didn't realize that, then again my A/C went warm years ago and I've never tried to recharge it. Put that on the things to do list in the next month. Looks like the connection is right by the windshiled wiper resevoir, passenger side front. Takes the 134 refrig.?, but I might look into the 'DuraCool' product that was mentioned in another older A/C thread here below.

Yep, '94 850.
