Assuming you hear some kind of clicking noise when you turn the AC on (the compressor clicking on): Seals on the AC compressor likely bit the dust. GM AC compressors go out almost as frequently as tires. The good thing is that they're not horrifically difficult to replace. You can get some freon with dye in it at your local parts house. Get enough to fill it up as though it's empty (as it likely is), and see if it starts blowing cold. It should blow cold for a little while (days/weeks maybe), but when you open the hood, you'll notice some green dye around the compressor. That's where the seals have failed and why you get to be the proud new owner of a brand new compressor (don't waste your time on a used one from a salvage yard. You'll get to replace it again soon, if you do.)
You will need to know if the compressor is working when it blows hot air to proceed. It could be an electrical problem, a blend door problem, or the a/c clutch on the compressor.
Roger it sounds like the blower motor is not comming on. There is a resistor network located in the engine compartment on the passenger side mounted to the firewall, that controlls the blower motor. The connections may have corroted or the unit itself is bad. That was the first thing I had to relpace when I got my used 92 Dakota. There is also a 30 amp fuse in the fuse box under the dash board . If that is blown I would suspect the blower motor is seized up or just pulling too much power.
Why would it try to get cold when moving at higher
rpm?
Low Refrigerant
Leaks
Air in System
Dirty Evaporator
HVAC System Doors not switching
Expansion Valve or Orfice issues
Compressor Failing
Condensor dirty & filled with leaves between it &
radiator
& More
Air conditioner system is
discharged. Have the system evacuated, charged and leak tested by an
MVAC certified technician, utilizing approved recovery/recycling
equipment. Repair as necessary.
Air conditioner compressor clutch
not engaging. Check compressor clutch wiring, electrical connections
and compressor clutch, and repair or replace as necessary.
That "thing" is part of the compressor clutch. When it’s spinning the clutch is engaged, when it stops the compressor is off. If it’s constantly cycling, you probably don’t have enough freon in the system. But remember, however the gas escaped before, it will escape again, unless you fix the leak.
already recharged it..didn't work
