Default AC compressor won't run

I just happened to notice this weekend that the AC compressor is not engaging when the temp is set below the OAT. The OAT was about 78 and set temp at 65, but no run. What do I need to look for?

I had this issue with my 94 Z28. It turned out to have a slow leak and I was low on R134a. I started to add a can and could still not get the compressor to kick on. I disconnected the battery to reset the PCM and the compressor then kicked on and the added can fixed the problem.
