Default Air conditioning question ac Clutch testing

Hello everyone
had a friend who has just purchased a 2003 s type 4.2 N/A
Honestly I think he got ripped off
He paid $11 k for it
But in saying that the v8 s type are hard to find in New Zealand
Ok to the point
We can not get his ac compressor clutch to Engage
I have checked the gas with my manifold gage set
That is fine
Checked fuses
Replaced dccv valve
And put in one of my rebuilt climate control modules
I have a thought he might have a bad ac clutch

Would anyone know how to jump the ac clutch to see if it works

Thanking you
Darrol
