My air condioner will kick on but wont blow cold air with the engine off but when the car is running it wont do anything at all. I was told it might have something to do with the throttle position sensor?

Alright but when I have the car running and I try starting the ac it does nothing at all, its just like the regular fan is running. The compressor doesnt even kick on to try and start the air conditioner. I dont know what is wrong?
