I have Volvo 850 STW/1996 with AC/ECC. It seems to be so, that the compressor of AC don't get any electricity, even if the AC-switch is pushed and some aux relay under the dashboard is working. So i need to have electrical wiring diagram of AC to find out where the electricity is hiding, because last summer it worked like clockwork, no problems at all, i even changed cooling gas on AC-system.

Pick-up a how-to-guide at your local parts store. You'll have better luck there then waiting an answer.

Kendoman - Check the AC pressure switch. These routinely go bad and are meant to save the compressor from failure if the R134a (and its lubricating properties) leaks out.
I had this exact same scenario in mine last year.....it was the pressure switch and cost a whopping $14 and all of 3 min. to fix.
