Default A/C Blowing Hot Air!

I drove to work this morning and the air conditioning worked fine, when I left work nothing but HOT air. I checked fuses, checked filter, refrigerant is full, the compressor is engaging, did diagnostic check on A/C and code "00" came up (which means normal)....


Any Ideas?


Thanks in advance.

This happened to my mom's Buick
they checked everything that you did &
even flushed the A/C system and refilled all the fluids,
everything was fine but still didn't work.
then I took it somewhere else were there experts on A/C's,
they removed glove box
& behind it was an "switch" that controls an arm for hot & cold
(or something like that) & they flipped the switch on cold
now the passenger side is always on hot lol
Cost to much to fix for a 99 Buick
Hope this is not your problem

does both sides blow hot air or just one side? It could be the expansion valve causing your problems.
