A/C Power supply and ground circuit check diagnostics. Assuming Z1 followed this procedure, what were their findings? Did they find battery voltage at pins 40 and 41? And was there continuity with the chassis ground at pins 33 & 55? I'm going to jump ahead with the presumption that they checked all underhood fuses and fusible links and go straight to some trial and error ideas.

Is it possible that you may have a pinched/cut wire from the TT swap? Just for fun, try connecting a ground wire to the black wire on the radiator fan motor. Then see if the compressor operates normally. This would help verify if there is a disconnected ground wire in the circuit. If you have an FSM, go to the A/C section where the circuit diagram is and check the ground connections at E22 and E13 (they may be different than what's listed in the online manual: La-Z-Link)

One other thing that caught my attention is that you've mentioned you have a couple of autoamps that are not the right models. If Z1 swapped out the autoamp, what makes you think one of the other ones you have would work? As for the ECU - if the unsocketed one is a known good ECU, why not get it socketed and swapping it in place of the one you have in the car?

If I think of anything else, I'll let you know.
