Hello,

My A/C blowing hot air and cooling fan not coming on when A/C is on. I'm not sure if compressor working can't find it. Thank you

Most of the time when this happens it is because the A/C system is low on refrigerant.

Here is a video to show you how to check the system:

If the system is empty, you have a leak.
