First of all, see if you have a bad pressure switch. Short the two wires together and see if the compressor turns on. IF it turns on and you know it has enough refrigerant the switch must be bad. The dryer/filter soaks up moisture. If the system has been dead for awhile the filter might be saturated with moisture. Replacing it can't hurt. Not to mention sometimes the saturated filter breaks apart inside and sends dessicant particles thru the system which would be a mess to clean out. The compressor hoses are usually the source of leaks, especially at the crimp connections. good luck
