Start at the controlhead. It's easy to remove and check to see if you have 12 volts at it on the mode switch. You should have a wire (purple/green I think) that energizes when in AC and DEF modes. That lead heads to the Pass kick panel and is plugged into the harness that goes up and out on top of the Evap case. Then that purple/green wire goes to the Cycling switches, pressure switches, compressor.

HAYNES manuals have the wiring for your truck.. About $20 at most any auto parts store, or book store.

There are only a couple of wires at the control head.
There is only one 6-8 pin plug at the pass kick panel that leads up to and out of the firewall/evaporator case.
