Jump the low pressure switch to see if it is just to low on freon. If the clutch starts spinning charge it, if not check for power at the a/c switch.
The compressor will not engage with low pressure jumped but will engage with power applied directly to it. It will turn on and off with the ac selector when directly wired to power. I know it needs a charge, but think it should power that orange wire w the low pressure jumped, right?

If u a have 12 volt at grn w/tr at low pressure switch. your push a/c push botton witch is good. At a/c compressor u should have a org and black wire and blue w tracer wright? if u do, jump the low pressure switch and applie ground to blue with w tracer at a/c compressor. A/c clutch should engange.
On the compressor are two black wires, spliced together to a bullet plug that meets the orange wire. one of them is grounded on the compressor case, the other goes into the clutch. I jumped from green tracer to the black wire(s) and the clutch will engage. However there is no power at the orange wire when just jumping low pressure switch.

I would make sure that your a/c system is charged! The wire diagram I am looking at sucks!
