The ac compressorThe ac compressor
You need oil in the compressor just as you need oil in your engine. If there is no oil, it will lock up and seize internally. yes it can cause damage to the bearings in the compressor. The unit has oil in it to lube
You don't need to engage the compressor clutch to recharge the system. In fact, you shouldn't engage it without refrigerant and oil in it, because the refrigerant carries the compressor oil in order to lubricate the compressor. But, to answer your question, you disconnect the low pressure switch, and run a jumper wire between the two female ends of the connector.
Assuming you are asking about the ac compressor, there would be two possibilities, blown fuse or low on freon.

There is a protection device on the AC system that prevents the AC compressor from destroying itself. If the AC compressor runs when there is no refrigerant present, friction inside the compressor will wear out the moving parts and push little pieces of worn compressor through the entire AC system. Once that happens, a simple recharge of the refrigerant changes into a major repair of the entire system. So the protection device turns the compressor off when the refrigerant drops below a set pressure as determined by the protection device. But if you insist on forcing the compressor on, there are two ways: 1. Find the protective device. Depending on the system, it can be on the receiver/dryer or anywhere else on the low side of the AC refrigerant lines. It will be the only sensor on the low side refrigerant lines Put a jumper across the low side sensor, then turn on the AC and the compressor should work, provided that everything else is functional. 2. Examine the front (pulley end) of the AC compressor. There should be a connector with a single wire. (if there are two wires, one will be connected directly to chassis ground If you connect a jumper wire directly from the battery to that connector, the compressor clutch should engage immediately. Neither method is recommended unless you know what you're doing and/or are in the process of recharging the system.
