Working on a friend's 2001 malibu.
Is low on freon. Trying to add more, but A/C compressor won't kick
on.
Where on the car is the low pressure a/c switch? I've looked all over
for the stupid thing!

I do not know specifically where on that car but if you follow the suction
(large) line from the compressor back toward the evaporator you should find
it. The most common location seems to be on or near the accumulator.
