Default 2012 Grand Cherokee AC issue

I have a 2012 Grand Cherokee that started giving me some AC trouble. First the drivers side blew cold and the passenger side hot air. A day or two later the driver side air is room temp at best. I noticed that the clutch on the compressor would only kick in for a second or two then stop, then run for another second or two after stopping for 20 seconds or so. I also noticed that you can barley move the clutch by hand. Any ideas on what or how any issues i might have( power supply, coil, etc.)
Thanks for any help

check your pressure. That is symptomatic of low pressure.

Describe how you are checking the pressure. Please be specific. Also, describe the state of the compressor when you are describing the pressure readings. ie, engine off; engine running , compressor off; engine running, compressor engaged (low side) (high side), etc.
