Default ac compressor

well ac stopped blowing cold a couple weeks ago. tonight i decided to get a recharge kit. used both cans i bought and no cold air. decided to jump the compressor and behold i got cold air. compressor just wont kick on by itself. any ideas? maybe bad relay?

Swap the fuses and relays first, it could also be a bad pressure switch or wiring.

Fixed it. Pulled the pcm fuse while car was running. Shut everything off and after putting it back in and turning the car back on compresor kicks on again

you restarted the computer. not a good idea to do that while the motor is running.
