Hi,
That isn't good with the temperatures we've been having. Did this happen all at once or did it happen slowly over time? Can you tell if the A/C compressor is engaging when you turn the system on? You may have to open the hood to hear a clicking sound when it engages. Open the hood and have a helper turn the A/C on. You should hear a click and notice a slight load being placed on the engine. See if that happens.
Also, here is a link you may find of interest. Take a look through it if you have a chance.

I will watch for your reply.
Take care,
Joe
