But having said that slip sensor do go off in a couple of minutes where as a Thermal fuse can take up to 30 minutes.
Looking at wiring diagram 6-3 from you, they call it a solenoid actuator??

I can't find a Thermal fuse or a Slip Sensor, anywhere. The Solenoid Actuator is the unit that moves the wobble plate, to control the volume of the output. It is controlled by a Duty Cycle signal from the Air con computer, to change the stroke of the Compressor pistons.
This is what the book says about it.

I'll keep looking and get back to you.
