Most likely the AC compressor clutch isn't engaged. This happens when the refrigerant pressure switch doesn't detect pressure in the coolant lines. The cause is usually a refrigerant leak.

This way the AC compressor is protected from running dry and possible damage.

Let your local repairshop check AC line pressure - if no pressure, look for the leak first then refill with fresh refrigerant.

2016 Kia forte. Ac stopped. Blows air just not cold. 7.5 amp fuse looks good.

Does the AC compressor come on?
A bad expansion valve will keep an AC from working even when everything else checks out. AC also has a low fluid sensor which will turn the AC off if it senses low gas.

1997 lose of power when the a/c comes on

On small engines, any minor performance problem is amplified with the ac due to the horsepower the compressor pulls.
You probably have a spark plug miss or injector problem that is made worse with the ac on.
If you have not done a routine tune-up on the car I would do that first, along with replacing the fuel filter if equipped.
I assume the check engine light has not come on right ?

Problem could be a number of things:
  1. worn or slick drive belt - drive belt slips and with AC on could cause stalling
  2. bad MAF (mass air flow) sensor
  3. dirty EGR valve
  4. bad TPS (Throttle Position Sensor) - controls idling speeds under all conditions ie. engine is cold, warm, running with AC on

Air conditioning wont turn on.

There should be a drain tube through your fiewall for condensation from the AC. It must be plugged.
