AC stoped working - has freon - suggestions?
My car was sitting for about 2 months and I did some work to is (belt/crank pulley). Now the AC is no longer working (Looks like its engagin but not blowing cold). I have 2 theories:
- I did have an electric short while working on the car - are there any fuses specificly to the ac or any other electrical parts that could have been damaged?
-maybe the freon is low - I'm guessing there is a low pressure switch somewhere in the ac system. Any way to diagnose this myself?
- I did have an electric short while working on the car - are there any fuses specificly to the ac or any other electrical parts that could have been damaged?
-maybe the freon is low - I'm guessing there is a low pressure switch somewhere in the ac system. Any way to diagnose this myself?

Quite possibly have blown the fuse. There is one specifically for the AC. I have an LS, so not sure where yours is located. Have someone pressure test your AC with a gauge to see if the system is low and needs to be recharged.
