Default Crazy AC

Yesterday when I turned on the A/C it worked again and stayed on till I shut it down and turned it on again it wasn't as cold. Lifted the hood and the clutch was spinning with the compressor. Today I tried no cold air at all and clutch never moved.. Tough to figuire, but I'll have to start a process of eliminating certain parts. But don't have a meter.. Help!!! Hate to take it to Ford. What do you guys think?

Default If clutch not engaging its not getting 12volts to clutch solenoid

If the pressures are to low or too high the pressure switches will cut off the 12 volt to clutch . But your control may not be sending it . Get your self a 12 volt lamp type tester to chase signal to find out where its stopping . You don't heed a meter .

I'm having a similar problem. It runs for about 10 mins. then blows hot. I had it serviced no fix. Replaced the orifice tube. No fix. I ran it until the compressor kicked off. I tried jumping the low and high pressure switches, still no compressor.
Going to look for the ambient temperature sensor.
Any other suggestions?
