A/C stopped working

Help, clutch won't engage on A/C compressor. Charge is good, high pressure cut-off switch is good, low pressure cycling switch is good and if I pull the A/C relay and provide power to the compressor clutch it kicks in and cools great. I was told that there is a 3rd switch for freon verification (found only on the Excurison and SVO Taurus) but cannot find any other switches. Any clues where to look next- it's kinda hot in So. AZ without air.
