Default A/C Compressor Clutch not engaging

I have a 99 honda accord thats in my signature but have some stock a/c questions. My a/c compressor clutch will only engage(rotate) on when I hook up a 12v source to it. So its not getting a signal from somewhere.
1) Relay(engine bay fuse box) should be good because I switched the relay around with another and same result
2) fuses are good

what else should i look for, havent hooked it up on the gauges yet, but it was blowin nice and cold 2 days ago then the next morning nothin because ac clutch isnt engaging.

if there isn't enough r134 the clutch will not engage. there is a pressure switch that tells the ECM it is okay to switch the compressor on when there is enough r134 in the system.
