if it does not activate the clutch when apply power and ground directly to the coil, then it must be bad...but, I am not there looking at it so I have no way to differ with his take on it :)

A lot of broken parts does not make you a racer; it makes you a slow learner.

On the back of the compressor is that 2 wire Red Oval plug & I've replaced mine at least once with one from Casper's. If it's getting proper power try to wiggle it a bit back & forth with ac turned on car running & see if it kicks on for a second. I had to apply quite a bit of downward pressure on mine to keep the AC compressor running. I know it's Hot there so wear gloves or use a tool to wiggle it. I read thru your thread pretty quick so I'm just assuming you have power there or can jump it? Good Luck need AC this weekend.

If he has applied a real ground and a good 12 volts right to the clutch then Shmed has bypassed the hi pressure cutout so I don't see anything else left to check. But when you reversed the leads I would have expected a very high current short thru the now positively biased diode?

PS: Apparently we now have a pet moose and he has the hots for my daughter's Nissan.

so this is a how many Nissans could a moose mount in Kinmount if a moose could mount Nissans before a Nissan turned the moose into a mount in a Kinmount cabin?
