Based on what you have presented, assuming the fuse is good since you have power into control head, I would say you need a new mode selector switch

You might be able to open it up, clean and regrease the contacts inside to see if that will fix it. The one in my wagon actually fell apart in the car, so I had to reassemble it. I used a common "christmas tree" trim panel retainer and a tinnerman nut to reassemble it.

Cool
I found two controllers on eBay if I can’t repair mine.
Would you happen to have one laying around by chance?

Wait you said mode selector switch
Would you have a part number for the switch?

I won’t have to get the whole controller?

That’s her.
The first pic I posted up was for vacuum, I made a mistake
Should’ve been the electrical connector (orange) in your pic.

I suspect that part will get me power to the compressor

That's the fan (blower) speed switch

Delco number for the selector switch is 15-7004. (GM #16001570...among others)
