ok guys so heres the story went to firestone to get my 94 gt's ac fixed. They tell me the compressor is bad, the clutch is locked up. I change out the compressor. then they tell me the compressor must be bad something about getting power to it but no ground. So i exchange for another compressor completely different brand and take it back in. they tell me the system is good, holds a charge no leaks but they cant get the ac clutch to kick on. They do some wire chasing and find that the constant control relay is bad, great, so I go and buy one and put it in and the clutch doesn't kick on at all. Help me out what to do now?

How did they get it to take freon without the compressor kicking on?
The relay for the a/c does come from the CCRM. The techs there should be able to figure it out.
Why are you getting all of the parts? Isn't that they're job?

Maybe the low pressure sw. maybe a fuse.

im unsure how they got it to take freon without the compressor on. I got all the parts because for them to change the ac compressor was $700+ and I was easily able to do it for much less. how can i test the switch?

You unplug the switch and connect a jumper under the connecter.
The sensor it'self should be able to be removed without draining the system.
