1998 Dodge Ram 1500 5.9L - Force Compressor on
I can't get my A/C compressor to charge, I figure it is either the pressure sensor is bad or there isn't enough charge, but I can't charge it without the compressor running.
I know where the A/C Compressor terminal is but there are 5 terminals and I need to know which ones I need to bridge to force the compressor on.
there are two horizontal fins and 3 vertical fins.

Which ones do I bridge?!
I can't find this terminal diagram in my Haynes manual, the one that is listed looks nothing like mine.
Thanks in advance!

I have a AC recharge kit, on the low pressure side it reads at a little over 100psi.
I want to try and get the compressor to cycle some refrigerant so that it can equalize and I will know if I need to actually recharge the system.
To my knowledge it hasn't ever leaked.
System is R134 by the way.
I checked the fuses, they are all good.
I will troubleshoot the sensor if cycling the compressor clutch on doesn't equalize pressures and allow the compressor clutch to kick in when it is supposed to.
Just need to know which holes to stick the paper clip in to force it on.

Ok I tried forcing it on in the A/C compressor relay, no dice.
Only thing I can think of at this point is that the compressor is seized up, but that wouldn't mean the clutch wouldn't at least try to engage.
Maybe the clutch is bad?
If I pull the clutch off, how would I identify that?
If the pressure sensors were bad, they would have been over-rode when I bridged the connections in the compressor relay, correct?
