What I did was unplug the wire connector on the other side of the accumulator and stick a U-shaped thin wire into the holes, which tricks the computer into turning the compressor on. The compressor adds pressure on the high side, which of course makes a partial vaccuum on the low side, which enables you to load a can of 134a in there. Then take about 10 minutes to fill the system in the usual way.

My Compressor won’t turn on
I asked because a few years ago mine wouldn't take any at all, the compressor would not kick on. It is a safety feature for when the pressure gets too low.
