Is it possible to jumper the AC compressor so it turns on?
My AC compressor won't start, and I want to find out if the clutch is shot, or if the r12 pressure is low enough to prevent the clutch from operating.
Is there some sort of fuse or relay that I can jumper just for a second to see if it starts?
Thanks!

Just a side thought- do you think it's more common to have a system just needing a recharge, than a compressor that's shot?

could be low, theres two switches on the dryer, one black and one white plug, one turns on the aux fan to high and the other turns on the compressor, jump them with the ac on and engine running
