Assuming the compressor clutch is engaging then problem is in the motor circuit, including the motor. Also assuming you have good fuse and power to the switch, power to the relay. Unplug the harness at the motor and use jumper + and - wires directly to the motor. Motor runs? Check power from the harness and same for the ground side.

I don't have a schematic, but there is likely a little resistor in the circuit that has gone bad.
