To change the AC clutch on a 2003 Ford F350, first, disconnect the negative battery cable and relieve the AC system pressure. Remove the serpentine belt and the bolts securing the clutch to the compressor. Carefully pull the old clutch off the compressor, then install the new clutch by aligning it properly and securing it with the bolts. Finally, reattach the serpentine belt, reconnect the battery, and check the AC system for proper operation.

Turn on ac and watch clutch on front of ac compressor. If clutch doesn't engage then AC relay is bad. Or you can follow the schematic on the side of the relay and use a volt meter to test it.
To test the AC compressor on a 1993 Ford Ranger with a 4.0 V6 engine, start by checking the refrigerant levels to ensure they are adequate. Next, with the engine running and the AC set to maximum, observe the compressor clutch; it should engage when the AC is activated. If the clutch does not engage, use a multimeter to check for voltage at the clutch connector. If there is voltage and the clutch still does not engage, the compressor may be faulty and require replacement.
You could have air in the lines
Most Likely Low With Freon.
The a/c clutch will not engage and the compressor will not come on.............
