Unhappy Battery died & now the a/c isn't working all of a sudden

I have a 1998 GS400, with about 178,000 miles. I have put it up for sale, showed it a few times, and while I had someone coming to look at it- I turned the car on, the battery was dead (apparently my last potential buyer, left a light on while looking inside) and I no longer have cold a/c.

Of course, this couldn't come at a worse time and I am stumped.

When I press the a/c button, the compressor kicks on but only blows warm air.
I checked the freon yesterday with a cheap can from AutoZone & it had freon, but the psi is high-around 80-100 but it has always cooled and been very cold, and I've never had to add any.

Interesting - I posted a similar issue, my battery died and now my VSC light(s) are on. No amount of toggling switches is changing it...I know a week ago, no issue, now the battery is charged and the lights are on?

Must be electrical for sure...
