Ok, sorry for the long delay. Between the weather, work, and my twin boys' 18th birthday, it's been hectic around here. We recently found an issue with the wiring harness to the compressor. We now have 12 volts at the connector, but we're not sure if it's making it through the connector. I also need to confirm that we have power to the correct side of the connector as well, and the previous owner made a mess of the wiring harness. Is there any way to test the ac clutch?
Thanks, Ted C.

Use a piece of wire to jump the safety switch on the dryer. This will engage the clutch if the system is working. The safety switch is supposed to cut power to the clutch in case of low pressure. It's on the side of the reciever/dryer on the passenger side of the engine compartment right at the firewall.
