AC Clutch Engagement
I recently restored my entire AC system, but now I have a problem. The clutch is not engaging (brand new). I went through and shorted the low pressure switch; nothing. Jumped the switch from the clutch to the positive side of the battery and the clutch clicked on!
This isn't a Camaro, but it's the best picture I could find. I jumped the positive terminal (between the compressor and the clutch) and grounded the other side. This tells me the connector may be bad OR I have a problem with it reading high pressure (even though it was recently topped off and no leaks were detected).
If ANYONE could lend me a hand I would greatly appreciate it

Re: AC Clutch Engagement
Update: Either the high pressure switch on the compressor has gone bad or a relay/fuse is bad. Any clue where I could find either one?
