    Can I guess you mean the Air Conditioning Receiver dryer?

    If so there could be a pressure switch on the receiver dryer for your aircon, it may have been disconnected or bypassed at some stage, the other end normally could connect to the compressor.
    It depends how the car is wired up I have seen aircon wired up a few different ways.

    Basically you have a thermostat to control aircon temp, pressure switch in case it runs outta gas, the clutch on the compressor, an idle boost solenoid, blower fan, and the aircon core fan. There are other poarts but im talking basics.

    So for the air to work, there has to be pressure in the aircon system, be warm enough for the thermostat to work and then the compressor is allowed to engage.

    You may find a pressure switch is on the aircon pump so the one on the receiver dryer would be redundant.

    cheers
