Get yourself a couple of cans of refrigerant and a hose to do this,it comes as a kit at the auto parts store,or ask someone there.Connect the hose to the can with the needle out,then connect the other end to the fitting on the car,there's 2 fittings but will only fit one of them(they have a cap like a tire fill on them)then screw the needle in to puncture the can top and with engine running,the can will empty and refill your system.You maybe need a second can if this doesn't cause the clutch to ingage.Have the A/c ingaged too.[ut the cap back on when done.Dispose of the can properly and keep the hose.Have your system tested for leaks,they make a sealer in the same style cans for leaky systems.

I just fixed a friend of mines 96 yukon...shift to neutral press 4H and u can hear the actuator make noise (we even replaced it with a new one his idea and the same thing happen as old one), so as he hit the switch for 4H i layed under it (on 4 jack stands) and I could hear the motor on the transfer case make a loud noise (well thats working) and before all this I asked him did u check all your fuses (he said guarnteed to be all good) one night it was bothering me so i looked through the owner manual for the yukon and in the fuse box on driver side by the door there are (2) fuse for the 4wheel drive unit,pull one of the fuses good...pulled the other one and it was blown put in a new fuse and it works like brand new..pull fuse for anything that has to do with 4 wheel drive componants,
You must of lost freon and when there is no freon your clutch will not activate.Must check it for pressure in the lines.If there is pressure check pressure switch.Good luck let me know
SOURCE: Fuse is OK but air conditioner doesn't work '94 GMC Yukon.
yes alow presure switch is likely on GM and it could be out of freon ,safe way to tell is to put a set of gauges on it and it will tell by passing the low side switch will just destroy the compressor if it is out of freon
SOURCE: 1991 Sierra GMC AC control problem
The follwing is a cut and paste from a service bulletin:
Bulletin No.: 461202
Date: May, 1994
SUBJECT:
A/C CONTROL HEAD FLASHES OR ERRATIC OPERATION OF A/C CONTROLS (POLISH
TERMINALS)
MODELS:
1988-94 CHEVROLET AND GMC TRUCK C/K MODELS
1990-94 CHEVROLET AND GMC TRUCK TOPKICK/KODIAK MODELS WITH C60 OR C69 AIR
CONDITIONING
CONDITION:
A/C Control Head flashes, performs erratically or malfunctions.
CAUSE:
Light surface corrosion on the Control Head terminals.
CORRECTION:
Remove the A/C Control Head and while holding the unit with the terminal
cavity down (toward the floor) so no particles will fall inside on the
circuit boards, polish the terminals on both sides of the cavity with a lead
pencil pink eraser. Do not use an ink eraser or other abrasive such as a
small wire brush or sandpaper, etc. Doing so will remove the terminal
coating and degrade the contact surface.
Performing this procedure, in many cases, will make replacing the Control
Head unnecessary. Using this procedure in conjunction with the A/C circuit
diagnosis found in the Electrical Diagnosis Manual and especially before
replacing a Control Head for any reason is recommended.
After polishing the Control Head terminals, but before reconnecting, check
for proper terminal contact as described in the applicable electrical
diagnosis manual. If contact is good, apply dielectric grease (P/N 12345579)
to the harness connector terminals. Please do not apply grease to the
Control Head.
SOURCE: 1992 gmc c1500 ac compressor relay location
I pulled this from another web site
"The AC clutch relay is located inside the cab on a metal bracket that is easiest to see when you remove the glove box compartment.
The relay is on a metal bracket bolted to the top of the plastic air box, forward and to the center of the dash from glove box.
There are three relays in a row on that bracket. The AC clutch relay is the end one closest to the driver’s side."
Testimonial: "Right on target... THANKS"
