Default 06 ES 330 a/c seats

My heated seats work great but a/c do not. Fuse? Ideas?
Thanks,
Paul

Heated seats has nothing to do with AC. They are separate system.
A number of factors can disable the AC: insufficient freon, seized compressor, clogged line, electrical issues, belt, etc...You really have to check all those components to narrow down.

I mean the vented seats. A/C works great! Maybe I don't understand the vented seats. Are they not suppose to blow cold air? They sure get hot when that's turned on.

The seats in the ES330 are ventilated, not cooled. Basically, it's just a fan under the seat that recirculates the ambient air in the car. If you put your hand on the seat and feel air blowing out then they're working as designed. You can also hear the fan running if you turn it on high.
