I have installed a new AC Clutch in my f150 and it is still not engaging. The fuse is fine and the switch seems to work in all positions but the clutch will not engage what is the most likely cause of this problem and how can I trouble shoot it (jump switches, diect connect to battery) without burniing up the system.
Thanks in advance Bob

Check for a full charge...if it's low on 134a the compressor will not start! You would have to jump the low pressure switch on the accumulator...don't leave it jumped with low charge!
