Compressor won’t turn on at the control, but it will engage if I put power directly to it. Checked the fuse and freon, both are good. Ideas?

It sounds like the low side pressure switch is out, but can I ask what is the low side pressure readings are with the system off? Also, please check the HVAC fuses # I have listed in the images below, this guide can help as well:

Here is the low side pressure sensor location so you can make sure it is plugged in, and the connection is good.

Please go over this video as well:
