A/C compressor bad

This sounds familiar to my recent trip to the dealership. I took my 98 Cobra in for a/c. The compressor would not turn on and the coolant charge ended up being good. What it was was a CCRM and a cycling switch. The Constant Control Relay Module must control the power on/off of the compressor. They were able to get it to work by jumping the relay. They replaced the relay ($165) and the a/c worked but the cycling switch which must control how much the compressor runs?? was faulty ($25). I really hate having to believe the dealership but my a/c now works like a charm. I am not a Ford tech but your problem sounds familiar to mine. Hope this helps and maybe you can get a couple other opinions!
