Ok. A few months ago, I noticed a strange sound whenever I had my ac on, it turned out to be my accessory fan under the hood.( I think the bearings were shot) anywyas I did not have the money to replace it, and did not know how. Well, time passed and the fan stopped working. The A/C at this point was still ice cold. Well recently, the ac is only blowing warm air, like im using just the vent. ( I LIVE IN FLORIDA ). It turns out my fan fuse is fine, car is not overheating unless in stop and go traffic with the warm a/c on. And the compressor clutch is not engaging when I turn on the A/C. I tried refilling with R134a thinking this was the problem, and the car would not take the refil. I can only assume its full. Can anyone please help me!
Thanks
Will.

Sounds like the cooling fans stopped working, check operation and repair as needed.

The cooling fans arent the problem, the car is fine on TEMP. Never goes above 190. The a/c was working fine with the once accesory fan not working, it was just an all of a sudden thing seems like one day A?C was great, next day blowing hot air?
Any other sugestions?
