Had the same issue. I replaced one of the fuses in the little case on top of the engine. Check the fuse diagram in the manual, locate the one for a/c. The fuses are color coded by amps, just buy the right color and push into place. (I did this after verifying my coolant levels were normal)

it is a r134a adapter wall mart has a kit

check the low side switch located on the ac receiver drier for 12 volts if so jump it with a paper clip if the compressor comes on then the relay is good if not the relay is in the fuse junction box under the hood.Most likely the pressure sensor.

Fuse #5 is for your ac.

On the Hi/Low pressure switch conection Terminal 1 and 2 are for AC clutch bridge them briefly to see if clutch engage if so system is low on refrigerent.

If you get cold air its more then likely Hi/Low switch is bad.

Note engine must be running and ac fan in on position.

Good luck
