There should be a compressor clutch diode somewhere in the engine bay. On my 91 325i, it is located on the compressor. It's worth a look.

There is a diode (for snubbing purposes, I assume) stuck right on the compressor. It appears good as I get continuity through it.

It still doesn't explain why I never get 12V on the line down to the clutch.

I am going to have to go see if I can trace this out.
