A few simple places to start is the low pressure cycling switch and the static pressure of the Freon in the system.
You can check take off the connector of the cycling switch and check the resistance to see if it is closed. And you can also jump the 2 wires in the connector and see if the compressor starts.
Static pressure should be around (ballpark) 90-100 lbs normally. But anything above 50 lbs should close the switch. You would have to lose a lot of gas to get below 40 lbs.
Check the compressor relay and the connector and pins for corrosion.
