HI, I lost my AC last week too. Here what I checked:
1. Clutch was engaging.
2. Compressor turning on.
3. Low side pressure was @45 and stable.
4. Tried to add Freon and only hot air was coming out the vents.
5. Relay and fuses were all good.
6. Lastly, had a shop (Firestone) do a AC check $19.99 to verify.

Does your compressor turning on and stay running? If so, your not building up enough pressure, you have a leak. Your compressor seals are leaking inside - so the compressor needed to be replace (Also the Condensor and drier).

I replaced both, ordered them online and ues the DIY from another member posting.
AC is working great again and saved $2800.
This forum is great.
