It sounds to me like the drive coupling (clutch) mechanism has failed. It
may be due to normal wear 'n tear, or something like a compressor stall or
lockup. Either way, it needs to come off and onto the bench for a good
look-see, or possible replacement compressor.
You mentioned that it was a Sanden, I believe. Don't know much about
the longevity of those compressors, but the old OEM compressors would
outlast you and me combined, properly maintained, and cool a 2 bedroom
house to boot.
