C230 AC Clutch won't engage

Brought the car into an AC shop to fill with freon and/or find leaks. They said they filled it but the clutch wouldn't engage (it did when I brought it there). I checked the clutch and I checked the codes and they all seem ok, including the low pressure. I put a little air pressure into the system untill the pressure code didn't say low and checked the signel going to the clutch and it's at about a tenth of a volt. What else can I check or what else could it be.
