Prelude 1998 - 194,000 v-tec 2.2 engine. I replaced my radiator today and when I was finished everything worked great but now my super cold air conditioning that worked great until now is blowing hot air. The compressor is turning but only blowing hot. What could I have done?

I did not knowingly discharge system. There is a electrical plug coming out of the air conditioner compressor that plugs into the side of one of the two cooling fans attatched to the radiator but this was my only contact with the air conditioner that I'm aware of.

Are the cooling fans coming on with the A/C? If not, I would make sure they are plugged in correctly and the ground for the fans are attached.
