A/C Problem?
My compressor clutch recently stopped coming on, I jumpered it out and it is working. I also checked the fuses and the relays, and It does not show any codes. I think it might be the refrigerant pressure sensor. My question is does the refrigerant have to be removed from the system to change this switch or does it have a schrader valve that keep it in?

Before taking drastic steps, get a set of gauges and check the system static pressure first and, if it's safe, jump again the low pressure switch to read both the low and high pressures. Perhaps the switch is fine and it's that there's not enough refrigerant in the system.
