A/C Clutch Not Engaging
Hello all. My air conditioner suddenly stopped working. I ran the diagnostic and cleared all codes. I have checked all related fuses and they are ok. What could prevent the clutch from engaging other than a fuse?

when you turn the system on you should see 12 volts at the clutch, if not then you have a faulty control module, if you do and no cool air then you have a faulty clutch which means you change the compressor

Is there a power wire going to the clutch where I would check for voltage? I do not see anything obvious. I probably need to remove the bottom shroud. Where would the control module be if this was the case?

there is one blue wire connector at compressor and or a blue wire at control module at pin 25---------however the faults will tell you what is faulty why are you FA under the car

I was under the car because that was the only way I could see the wire and where it attaches. I was verifying that the wire was in good condition.
