Here's how to do it...

To jump the A/C compressor you just need to run a wire from the battery positive terminal to the compressor itself (bypassing the fuse, relay, pressure sensor, and temperature sensor). ONLY DO THIS FOR TESTING PURPOSES! It's not a long term "fix" since if the pressure sensor says the system is low on refrigerant you will damage the compressor if you run it for any length of time.
The best place to connect to the compressor is just after the temperature sensor which is screwed into the top of the housing. You'll see a single wire that comes from the behind the grille, disappears into the temp sensor and then comes back out and over to the compressor clutch. You can easily disconnect the wire at the plastic connector and jump it after the sensor. If that works, try jumping it BEFORE the sensor. If this doesn't work, but jumping it AFTER the sensor does then you've found a bad temp sensor!
