Default Help AC is not working!

My AC stopped working this weekend I have checked the compressor fuse but that is good. I heard about a HVAC fuse but I don't know where it is and its in the fuse box in the car can some one tell me which one it is since i don;t have the fuse box cover that shows the locations of the fuses and what they are for. The compressor is not engaging? Could it be the clutch, any advice is appreciated. But first can someone tell me where the HVAC fuse is located in a 2000 TA.

If you're low on refrigerant the low pressure switch will keep the compressor from coming on regardless of the fuses. There's a diagram in the owners manual for the fuse boxes - if you don't have one you can look at/download one at http://shbox.com/pdf/manuals.html
