You should have what they call an "AC Pressure Transducer" mounted on your receiver/drier.

That strikes me as very very odd. Every single listing in my parts catalog has a switch of some sort on the drier. Can you post a picture of your drier?

I'm currently trying to figure out an AC issue in my 13 Tahoe LT... it acts as though a pressure switch is cutting off the compressor. Ive checked the charge. Its good. I cant find a low pressure switch. Usually it located on the suction accumulator, but there is not one. The only pressure switch I see, appears to be to be a high pressure cut out. Well I took a big gamble with no real diagnosis time and replaced it. The parts cannon has missed on the first shot. Not to hijack, but Im along for this ride to find a low pressure cut out as well.

Nice wade, to clarify a little more.
Right next to compressor, left side looking at front of engine under the plastic y from the waterpump.
Thank you for posting that. Does the refrigerant need to be evacuated to change the switch?

Not that I am aware of. There is a valve in the port that the sensor opens as you install it. You may get a little puff of refrigerant as you are removing the sensor.
