Help me! Took my truck for ac test and they said bad compressor, so i replace compressor, condenser and the orifice tube i still have no power to my clutch. The exact same reason i replaced the old compressor.

Check the relay over there on the drivers side of the engine bay. Its between the degas bottle and air intake snorkel. Then check fuses.

I had the relay and fuses checked already, the guy at the diagnostic place checked everything..still no luck

If a diagnostic guy tells me to change a compressor because it isn't getting any power to the clutch, I'd look for a new diagnostic guy and be suspicious of any other checks he did.

spacing between clutch and compressor is too great, remove a washer? Give it a light tap inward with a hammer to see if it engages, if it does, you need to remove a washer to reduce the gap. plenty of youtube videos on this procedure.

Different truck, same procedure.
