Ive got a 2000 Mustang GT AC just gave out. Here are the symptoms as I understand them. Two days ago ac seemed normal. Yesterday it started blowing hot air. Today I went to buy freon. Some helpful guy said my pressure was way too high, He drained pressure down to 45-50 range (really guys, I don't know what Im talking about) he just released gas from the freon line like you would air from a tire....and then put in a can of freon. Still blowing hot air. Is it the compressor? is there some cheap way to fix this? I live in Miami, FL. When the car isn't moving the interior goes quickly to over 100 degrees in the car. I exaggerate, but I think the car AC is blowing hot air at about 120 degrees.

Welcome aboard!

Try posting your issue in the New Edge Tech section.
Someone will come along to help you out, as I'm an AC dummy.

I would strongly recomend taking it to a qualified a/c technician for a proper diagnosis!

Welcome to the site, noticed you joined almost a year ago, & this is your 1st post.
Sorry to hear about your AC issues, which I can't troubleshoot from N.J.
There are some AC troubleshooting videos on line, a no cost option, prior to taking it to a shop................good luck.
