Default A/C question

When I finished my teg swap on my '84 CRX last year, I installed the a/c components from my donor '87 Si into my car. Prior to reassembly, I had all the hoses and compressor cleaned and purged, added oil, as well as the replacement of all the "O" rings. Today I had the system evacuated and it is keeping vacuum nicely. Now here's the annoying part; there is no power going to the pressure switch. With the key in the "on" position, fan on, and a/c button on, the a/c button lights up green, but no power to the pressure switch from either of the blue wires w/ the red tracer. What gives?

are they supposed to have power? Remember this is a cut off swith which only operates at specific pressures.

On the pressure switch there are two wires; one is live when the a/c button is on, the other is only live when the pressure switch senses pressure. No pressure, no power.

My quandry lies in the question, why is there is no power to either one of the two wires?
