    Can't say how the OP's engine works, since I think he still hasn't said what it is. But on mine if the air pressure is not up the engine fan solenoid will not work and the ECM will shut the AC compressor down.

    The compressor is shut down by the high pressure switch in the ac line.

    Mine were the opposite

    The engine fan kicked on when the air pressure was removed from the fan clutch

    Yes, that's the same. But what about the AC compressor? My AC compressor shuts down when there is no air pressure in the system.
