Look at the gray vacuum line that runs from your right side just over valve cover to rear of ac fan on outside fire wall.
Mine had popped off... I put back in and all was good.

Also, check your compressor clutch gap. If it's too wide, the compressor is not engaging.

Yessir, done.
The gap is good and the compressor engages and stays engaged when necessary
