If it's set for COLD air but was blowing HOT air, you should figure that
out first, rather than monkeying with the refrigerant.

Are the selector buttons causing the various actuator motors to move the
doors?

Hi, I have a 97 Civic EX. Recently my A/C stopped pumping out cold air, it
was just hot air as a matter of fact. I went to Target and bought a can of
Artic Ice R-134 coolant that had the hose and gauge already built in. I
followed instructions exactly. Hooked it up to the low side line, squeezed
the trigger, and then nothing. My car isn't sucking this stuff in. What do
I need to do? My step-dad is a mechanic and he said I might have to do
something with the receiver/drier, but I have no idea where that is or what
to do with it.
