91 Cruiser Ac Switch Shot?

[angerhater]

ok so the dash switch does not light up, hence no other activations...there is some pressure in the lines , yet has not been run in 6 years..what might I do to troubleshoot it?, and is it worth the trouble? truck has about 350k on her, its 95 degrees here and I feel like I am driving around in a microwave...any help? thanx

If its not been used for 6 years the gas will have leaked and the seals will have gone, the button will only light when it has enough pressure, so you need a sevice and re-gas.
