I tried adding refrigerant but the gauge goes all the way to the end of the red and it won't take any new refrigerant.

Yes it is turning. I followed your guides and got a new compressor from Amazon for $178.00 and fixed it myself was not that hard. Here is me adding Freon. Thanks again for your help I love this site.
