Unhappy A/C code 23.....??

ok, i have been trying to find my presure switch curcuit to see if its getting voltage, or if i could jump it out to see if the compressor would engage. i can't seem to figure out where it is located. the only plug i see in the AC lines is one near the firewall on the passenger side. i tried that, but it was something else. im not really sure what to do, but since that is the only code current, and i recharged the system at work the other day (no leaks), it must be the problem...... right?

its a 93 SC300.

please let me know if you have any info, as the hot florida weather has been kicking my *** for the past few months.

thanks guys

yea, i thought it was supposed to be somewhere by the evaporator, but i really have no clue. ill probably throw it on a lift today and get a real good look to see if i cant find it. thats gotta be the problem since it is the only code showing. ill double check to see if its on the compressor. thanks for the help.
