Two possibilities. One is the blend door actuator is bad ( located under the dash, in the center). Or the controller is bad.

SOURCE: a/c in jetta blows hot air, its been charged, compressor comes on.

you need to have it diagnosed by a professional. These are complicated systems even to a trained tech. You may be over or under charged, have a clogged expansion valve, have a leak or many other issues. This model has a rcv refrigerant control valve inside the compressor which regulates the pressure of the compressor. If you notice the compressor never shuts off like conventional auto a/c's do the only time the clutch works is when you turn it on or off. Can be complicated.

Check the evaporator coil by sniffing the vents,floor is best, with your tester.

SOURCE: air conditioner blows hot air fully charged with

compressor or receiver/dryer or condensor may need to be replaced. Further testing will have to be done. Look into your sight glass and see if there is any bubbles in the glass, or if glass is extremely foggy. If so, you may have air in the system. Check to make sure you are getting power to the compressor.

SOURCE: AC blows hot air but AC compressor works

if the compressor works and your freon is charged it may be the blower flapper door....disconnect battery for 10 minutes and then re-connect to reset the electronics that control the flapper

AC COMES OFF AND ON BUT WON'T STAY ON IN A 2010 C300. BLOWS COLD AND HOT AIR. WORKS FINE WHEN IT DOES WORK

I assume you are talking about mercedes c300. Is that happening when you set on auto. What happens when you set temperature to lowest settings? When it blows hot, is it hot or warm? Does ac compressor works when you blow hot air? There could be few possibilities: low freon, faulty temperature sensor in the cabin, faulty ac controller, sticky ac/heater door or faulty door motor

Chevy traverse 2010 ac is blowing hot air

try the ac fixes(freon recharge) found at your local autoparts store if that works for a little while you have a leak in the ac system if it makes no change it is most likely the ac compressor or the ac pulley is not engaging

Ac is blowing hot air, but has coolant in it. Is it a compressor problem?

If the system is charged with freon, you need to know if the freon is flowing. A mechanic would check high and low pressure with a gauge while the compressor is running. If the ac system is working correctly, you could have a blend door problem inside the truck. The blend door directs air thru the heater or the ac evaporator depending on the control on the dash.

I have a 2000 Dodge Ram 1500 that will blow cold and hot air for only a few minutes. After that is only ambient air temps. It is a 5.7 ltr, automatic with only one set of climate controls. The heater core...

you say it will blow cold and hot air for only a few minutes. You don't say but I assume you mean will blow cold a few min. when turned on AC max , blow hot only a few min. when turned to heater hot. Assuming thats the situation and you say AC charged and shows good on the low side -you should charge the AC to a full charge on the low side will cause problems with the AC air compressor kicking on and off. I suggest while the engine is running and turned to AC cold max watch the AC air compressor clutch to see if it does indeed kick on and off if so charge completely. As far as the heater make certain you coolant is all the way to the top and the best way to do this is when engine is completely cold remove radiator cap and fill completely and completely close cap then fill overflow container just to the cold level. That should fix your problem.

1999 Ford F150 AC fully charged with freon is blowing hot air

there are few things you need to check out:
1. if the compressor is overcharged it will shut down and you won't get any cool air
2. the thermostat for your cooling system is bad
3. the link to adjust the temperature is too short (did you feel the switch loose when changing temperature from hot to cold)?
hope this helps.
