Jumper the low side limit switch and try again.
If they AC clutch kicks in then you are low/out of refrigerant.
(this can be due to the valve seal not seating properly)
http://revbeergoggles.com/Fixes/diag...s.html#sensors
If that doesn't work then it is probably a relay or fuse.
The low limit jumper is _not_ a fix. It's only a diagnostic.
Do not run your AC this way as you can burn out the compressor.
It's ok to do for a few minutes or when filling.

Otherwise known as the service port Schräder valve. It is not unheard of
for one of these to start leaking after diagnostic gauges are put on it.
Annoying as hell, but not unheard of.
Also if the clutch does not kick in on jumping the low side switch, suspect
a burnt out clutch coil. Check for burnt smell and open circuit or short to
ground.
It won't hurt anything to look for AC system leaks with a soap bubble test.

Re: 1999 jeep cherokee sport air conditioner.
there could have been a service valve leaking and they left the cap off
which resulted in a leak that had a plug when they checked pressures
or the evap coil is leaking which is a common issue
