below the ac had no idea what it was for anyhow I
switched it by accident and it seems to be a switch

They bypassed the A/C compressor switch on the HVAC control in the dash, sometimes this switch is part of the control and can't be changed without changing the whole control assembly, I have been able to clean and realign contacts so remove the HVAC control and take a look. I hope this helps. Take care.
