Ouch - and this Florida heat has been pretty bad lately. I feel for you. No warranty left on the vehicle? Possible extended warranty?

I was fighting an a/c problem for the last 6 months. I had a combination of problems, but it's now fixed.

For starters, go to pep boys or autozone and pick-up the recharge kit that comes with the gauge(it's ~$15). Test for a low charge, and go from there. Recharging is very simple and cheap! If that does not work, confirm that both fans spin when turning on the a/c.. Let us know! no a/c sucks, I just spent $300 fixing mine.

Thanks for all the replies,im begining to think its the blower motor,cause once i get going with the A\C on cold air comes out very slowy,but i have no control over the fan speeds 1-2-3-4,makes no noise or anything.Anyone have an idea how much that will cost ?

thanks

-steve

I don't have my manual here, so I could be wrong. I think the blower control has a resister box associated with it to give the different blower fan settings. That may be your problem.
