Black death. You will flush your Ac system and change condenser, compressor, and drier.

Talk to your technician.

Then somethinbis not right. Maybe the clutch is birnt,or the manual thermosta wire has gone bad,e suppose warm and not hot...carry am go better rewire...also dos ice foam at the pipes ir not.my own was foaming ice at the top... The idits said the compressor don sapa..say i go buy new one..meanwhile it wasthe manual thermosstat instaled under my glove box that got burnt and ac was no longer cooling,cutting and picking like it shud. Pls go to chat gpt an type what you are experiencing with the compressor...then check it manually and see whats wrong. Could be fuse,minor wiring,etc..dont just rush cos most techicians are scammers ..diagose thw problem ypursef before u go tere
If not,dem go chop u like fish...

Probably a bad gas was used, that destroyed the whole unit. Did you at any point employ someone that refilled your gas with the 3k, small canisters they sell on road side?

Lots of fake gas canisters out there destroying ac units. To have any peace going forward, you will likely be changing everything on the ac units including hoses etc. that's a very expensive fix so brace up.

Also engage professionals with good referrals, verifiable workshop on anything car acs. It might be expensive at first but saves you years of heartache and regrets.
