Hi, just went through this. here's a few sujestions.

1. Check the A/C clutch fuse located in the Power Distribution Box on the left side of the radiator. Fuse location #21, 10 amp.

2. Check the A/C clutch relay, also located in the Power Distribution Box. Location #33.

My fuse was good so I substituted the relay with the relay with the Wiper Speed relay which is the same relay, Part# F57B14B192AA. Location #25.

And my A/C clutch started working, charged the system and went to the dealer to buy a replacement relay.

Good luck...
