Air conditioner was working, replaced the belt a few weeks later and now it doesn't work
I think it's coincidental; I think the air conditioning fuse or circuit breaker has blown. Check the fusebox - this fuse should be labeled "AC" or "A/C".

The accord has to radiator fans, if it blows hot air and then the ac comes back on. My accord did exact same thing. The solution was replacing one of the fan. Mine happen to be right fan, when facing the front of the car. hope this might help.

You may be out of refridgerant, That will probably need to be check.

It sounds like it may be a stopped up radiator or a possible blown head gasket. You need to take it to a repair shop and have the radiator flow checked and also check for the presence of hydrocarbons in the coolant which would indicate a possible blown head gasket or a cracked cylinder head.
SOURCE: air conditioner makes noises after it starts
I do not think that the battery change and the noise for the a/c is related, probably just a coincidence.
If the a/c makes a loud noise when it is turned up, I would try switching to vent to see if the noise is still there. If it is, then it is the ventilation fan likely located on the firewall or under the dash under some plastic paneling.
There is no reset button for the a/c.
Good luck on this repair.
SOURCE: Air conditioner stopped cooling. Dealer diagnosed
It could be that there was more than one leak and the dealer found only one. The AC system has two pressure switches to protect the compressor from damage---a low press. switch cuts off the compressor when there is not enough refrigerant in the system, the high switch cuts off when pressures get so high they could blow out the seals. Both are a result of a leak--refrigerant leaks out and air can leak in. Air will compress and when it does, it gets hot--so no cooling, and pressures go way up. So the compressor may have been stopped by those protective switches.
Of course, there could be a bad relay or other circuit malfunction.
Another possibility is that the compressor sat too long before being repaired (but we are talking about weeks going by here, not days). The air and moisture (humidity) that leaks into the system during this time creates acids that will attack the metal reed valves in the compressor. On restart, the damaged metal valves eat themselves in short order. If this is the case, the compressor ran until it seized and will need to be replaced. This particular problem is impossible to diagnose. So the dealer may have done his best.
Testimonial: "Thanks. I did wait a few weeks before bringing car in for AC repair, so you could be right about the compressor. Ewwww."
