Default 05 Scion Tv A/C, stops cooling after car warms up

I know this has prolly been talked about on here before, but i was wondering if anyone had a link to the tsb for this, or know the easiest way to fix the problem. i jumped the clutch coil on the A/c and it engages, but won't engage after car is hot or has been running for 10-15 minutes. My girlfriend gets ____ed when its hot in the car so im trying to avoid bruises,help!

OK lets act like i know a little bit... we have already put gages on the high side and low side, pressures are fine, fuses and relay is fine, like i said the a/c works great at first, perfect,but let it warm up a little bit and the a/c stops working, thats when i tried jumping the clutch coil direct, well the first time it came on then it ran for about 5 min. and shut back off. and i mean shut back off directly...If I jump it off directly and the coil stops on its own, how is that possible is there something else to make it stop working, I mean there is no other wires going anywhere
