Have you had your pressures checked or had the system refilled lately? If the pressure is wrong the high pressure or low pressure switch will kick in and not allow the compressor to engage.

what are you hotwiring under the hood,the connector that goes to the switch on the dryer if that's what your hotwiring then that means your switch is bad
