I would suggest taking it to a Shop and having the AC checked. The Freon may have leaked out over the winter and fall. Most places do free AC checks. If the Freon level isnt a certain level it wont kick on. Check the fuses also and all connections.

Agreed.

The usual cause is a leak. The shop might have overlooked something, or perhaps this leak has a new and different cause.
