No power at the AC fuse 2013 chevy spark
After a compressor expansion valve condenser and high pressure hose replacement. I can not get the compressor to activate. I can get it to start by manually supplying 12 v to the compressor. It starts and cools. I read that the BCM may have shut off the compressor to prevent damage? But not on the spark model.

it is charged to the 15.1 oz it does cool when I apply 12 volt manually.
On other small chevy models I read where the BCM has shut down the compressor to prevent damage.
There is no relay in the fuse block. It is labeled for one but is not there. The AC fuse 10A in the main fuse block as no 12v supply or no 12 volt fused. basically an open circuit.
Is it possible a BCM flash is requited to activate the system after the repair? The owner tells me she must take the car in for every little thing for a reset from TPS on the tires after rotation, to an oil change.
