vacuum heater control box PSA
I am posting this to hopefully help people in the future as i have resolved the problem.
I have replaced and rebuilt 3-4 of these things, and even tried "nos mopar parts" from eBay to the tune of $70-100 each and every single one would keep my AC compressor running to some degree.
I took them apart and I think it could be a design flaw where some of the switches on the one side remain in contact no matter how hard you push the button.
They also don't sell these anymore at any of the parts counters that used to for around $50. So after digging and digging I saw someone post that classic industries actually stocks a OER replacement for about $90. I picked one up at their retail showroom and BOOM my ac doesn't cycle anymore.

Really wish I would have known about this part sooner so I am hoping this post saves someone else the headache and hassle of rebuilding one of these switches and not having it work or buying expensive NOS stuff that could cost double this price on eBay.
