MY 1998 Nissam Maxima SE edition has the automatic climate control. The AC can be working fine and then noticibly change to hot air. If I turn the unit off, and then back on.... after about 5-8 times it will blow cold again. I have had it checked and there are no Freon leaks and it is always working fine when I try to duplicate the problem at a repair shop. Any ideas?

The AC system could be freezing up due to air and moisture forming ice and blocking off the orifice tube or problem with the AC head control
