My 99 oldsmobile bravada is having an A/C problem, cant figure it out. Someone please help!?

So when I try and turn on my a/c in my oldmobile bravada 99, the ac light just blinks. So i thought it was just low on Freon. Bought the freon, and it was full. Let me explain everything I have elimated. First off the compressor wont kick on, or does very seldomly. The shop automatically said I needed a new compressor, so I showed them that it was not the compressor by taking a speaker wire and connecting it straight to the battery and sure enough it started up. I was then told I needed a A/C compressor switch, and that did not work either. So we tried the freon thing again, and all the metal parts that should be freezing are cold. It will go on for like 5 seconds when I use the wire to the battery, and then blow out hot air. I took apart my glove box to see if a door is opening or not and nothing is moving, but then again the air wont stay on long enough to tell. From what we can see we do not see any broken wires. I really don't know what to do now, i have spent too much money on shops that keep giving me the wrong answer. I am trying to avoid the high fees of going to the dealer, so if you have any other suggestions I would sure appreciate them. Thank you.
