Unhappy A/C Compressor not turning on

All of a sudden my compressor doesn't want to turn on. Refrigerant level is fine. Any thoughts what to check? Thanks!

The fuse under the drivers side dash is fine. Any other fuses? Or relays?

check your fuses
the compressor gets one feed
you need to make sure your line isnt grounding out or cut off like in my case
its a pain in the ass but you might need to find a electrical professional to save yourself the headache
where do you live? maybe i can hook you up

I live in Branford, CT. I've got an appointment for Monday with a good guy, but I want to give him a heads up if possible.

Thanks!

(An A/C specialist did a very quick look and said he didn't think it was the compressor, and after hooking it up said the refrigerant level was fine.)

the compressors rarely go
its the feed from the unit inside the car that might go bad somewhere
