White Smoke has been coming out of my A/C vents. It just started today. I figured it was my coolant fluid or my car overheating but it wasn't. My car has plenty of coolant fluid there are no leaks and the meter on my car shows that my car isn't hot or cold. I poped the hood and checked to make sure nothing was hot and everything was fine. I'm not sure what it is or why its smoking. I know its not fog and my heater and ac have worked before but i haven't checked to see if they work today.

If it doesnt smell sweet sounds like your evaporator core is leaking ac charge.

Only two things it can be the heater core leaking or the evaporator core leaking ac charge.
