It probably just needs a recharge. There is a low pressure switch that protects the compressor from coming on without refrigerant (134a) to circulate the lubricating oil. Get it charged and go from there. It should kick on after the first of two 14 ounces cans of 134a. (That would be a maximum charge.) Use gauges.
