a/c quit  getting cold about a year ago. car has been in storage since. placed dye in system but see no leaks but ac compressor clutch not engaging. have checked all fuse box ac fuses and relays. all good now have car up on jacks with shrouds removed. can I just make a jumper to see if its actually the clutch burned out or some relay or sensor I missed?

Freon level to low to activate clutch engagement add Freon until clutch engages if it doesn't engage than you have compressors problems.
