74 318 factory air. The compressor is not kicking in when the AC is turned on. I don't see any blown fuses. Worked last year. This was the first time I tried it this year. Not sure where to go after the fuse check. Wiring looks to be in place and good.

Locate the dryer and jump out both terminals arriving to the presostatic switch. If engages, you are out of refrigerant or switch is damaged.
