AC relay jump and Sostill no hapiness
Out here in dusty West Texas, temps of 100+ in the summer is standard.
So, an AC is a nice thing to have.
2001 Lariat
The compressor was not engaging, replaced the relay and still no go.
But, when I jumped it, the compressor kicks on.
Tried a few relays both old and new, still the compressor only works when jumped.
Any thoughts?
All help is appreciated.

Jump the low pressure switch and see if it comes on.

So, when you use the AC switch, nothing happens(?). The problem may be in the switch.

It could use some freon.
If I jump the relay, the compressor kicks on.
If I put the relay back and jump the low pressure switch, nothing happens.
If I jump both, not sure what I would have learned about the situation.
