When I turn on the Air conditioner in my 2002 kia rio it comes on and when I drive over a bump it goes out. It comes back on when I drive over another bump sometimes and sometimes it may be an hour or up to a week before it comes back on. What is my issue and how do I resolve it

Check the wiring to the blower motor. See if anything is loose there. Also, make sure there is power to the blower motor. If there is and it doesn't come on, either you have a bad ground or the blower motor is bad.
