Ac stopped, low side high, no compressor

Hi,

Wifies 2011 rogue had the ac quit working as she was stomping on it to merge.

When I turn on the AC, the cooling fans turn on immediately, the compressor does not.

The compressor turns by hand, not freely but not too too hard.
I was about to change the clutch because I could smell something burning when I looked after right she got home, then checked Eric’s video and called a mechanic, both told me to check for leaks first.

I see dye inside the fitting for the low side, I hooked up a recharge kit, the low side is off the chart, 150psi.

Just for some kind of base I also hooked it up to My car and with engine off, it read like 125psi. So… Don’t know if both are overcharged or I got a bad guage or what.

Please can you help me not blow some unknown sum of money…
