My air conditioning compressor is not cutting in. Presumably there must be a temperature sensor to tell it to 'switch on' when needed? Can I cheat the system by 'shorting the wires' to check if the sensor has failed?

It won't cut in if there is insufficient refrigerant pressure. Are you sure there isn't a leak?
