Any Octavia vrs mk1 owners know the exact location of the air con pressure sensor?

I haven’t had air con for a few years , but recently got it gassed and then still none.

Running vcds it found the air con pressure sensor code showing.

Ive purchase a switch and then I began to fit, what I thought was the pressure sensor. Either I’m in the wrong place or the new part is wrong.

On the air con compressor there’s a pipe coming of that has a sensor with electrical plug. I thought this was it but the new part is slightly smaller and has three electrical outlets whereas the original, or what I thought was it, has two.

googling the part number , I believe I do have the right part, so I’m probably looking in the wrong place!

any ideas??? TIA

Can you message me with your VIN, or just post it here?

 

from what I remember its on the bulkhead, turbo inlet pipe area.

Have a look in here, air con' is in Section 87 Page 50, I think its item 2.

Note the picture shows a L/H drive car so its on the opposite side :-
