how would I wire a switch for the AC compressor?

every spring, my AC works great, but then as it gets hotter out it eventually stops turning on. there is plenty of freon, and I've had a couple places look over the system. one place said there are no leaks and that it's just a matter of the compressor not turning on all the time. when it does, it's ice cold, but it's just picky. seems to work when it rains, so I'm not sure what that's about.

I'd like to run a switch to power the compressor manually. I'm ok with electronics as long as I know where to start looking. has anyone done this in their truck? where would I look for the power wire for the compressor?

I forgot to say that this is not a relay issue. I've swapped for different relays, new ones, etc. also, the light doesn't blink ever, it stays on. the compressor just seems to decide when and when not to turn on.
