2001 A/C clutch not working, no power

The A/C clutch is not working and there is not 12v at the A/C compressor. My meter shows no continuity for the 12v wire from the relay to the compressor. Where can I find a wiring schematic? Thanks

Here is the wiring diagram

In 2001 the AC is controlled by the computer
When you select AC the computer(PCM) gets that "demand signal"
It will then connect the GROUND, from the two pressure switches, to the GROUND for the AC Relay.
AC relay has 12v with key on but no GROUND so stays OPEN

When grounded, AC Relay will close and send 12v to AC Clutch on compressor
That 12v for the compressor comes from engine bay fuse box Fuse #F1.25, 10 amp fuse <<< check this first

Good work

Thanks for posting the update

What was the "fix"?
It might help others if they have similar issue
