AC Issue
Have a weird AC issue in my 2002. Sometimes is works, others it doesnt. Some times just cutting the car off, and back on will fix it. There are no codes, and I dont think it is low on freon due to it working sometimes.... Any suggestions? Thanks for the help.

Perhaps running the self-analysis first (as suggested above) may help. Also, I would fill/top off the coolant, just to be safe.
(I assumed your AC has manual controls; with automatic controls, there is another set of parts that may fail although the principles are the same).

See page 43 in the following link for the diagnostic. Two things about this diagnostic:
1) It does not test the compressor, it only tests the controls and the sensors. The compressor could be missing and the diagnostic wouldn't know the difference.
2) Since you have an intermittent problem, try to run the diagnostic when the a/c isn't working.

Well I took it to the dealer last week. Of course it was blowing cold air the entire time it was there. I guess the good news that came from this is they verified bit was not a freon issue. The bad is they randomly said it "could" be a thermistor in they dash. Cheap part. I told them to order it and get back with me. Since then my symptoms have changed a little. Hot air until you drive about 15 to 20 minutes, then it magically kicks on. This alone with the comments has me leaning to the compressor as the trouble maker. Any additional thoughts?
