Replaced because it was noisy? Did you remove the compressor to replace it? Have you erased all A/C codes in the BCM?

Go to the main forum site, click on FAQ and then scroll down to CODES.

If, after codes cleared, compressor still wont engage, you might have too much of an air gap between the coil and clutch.

You can also use a jumper wire on the low pressure switch on the drier.
