To be honest you need to jump the compressor first.

lol aint no pressure switch.......there is a pressure sensor............the pcm looks at this sensor reading and if it sees a proper reading it will allow the compressor to turn on if everything else is in order. BUT THERE IS NO PRESSURE SWITCH YOU CAN JUMP!
