Welcome to df. I'll move this to the correct section. How are you verifying you have no power to the clutch? Have you checked the fuses and is the system charged correctly?

Agree, Check the fuses first and maybe by-pass the high pressure switch.

Easiest place to start is as MT stated - check the fuse. That would be 15 amp fuse 11. Next pull the A/C clutch relay and jump contacts 30 and 87 at the relay socket. The clutch should engage immediately. If that works swap the relay with another identical relay on the panel. Still dead? Come on back.
