Air Conditioning or lack of.

Turned on the air conditioning today and got warm air. Looks like the clutch is not engaging on the compressor. I checked the relay and the fuse, both were good. Is there anything else to check for before I take it in to a ac/shop?

The low pressure switch on the drier will prevent the compressor from running if it failed or you have low enought pressure to trip the sensor.

Low refrigerant charge will also keep the compressor from engaging.

Ditto on the low freon charge(most common problem-look there first).
