So over the last month I noticed my AC temp getting warmer until yesterday no AC, the AC doesn't seem to be engaging. I heard if AC charge gets to low the compressor won't engage so went and bought a can to charge the AC, when I hooked it up read really low so charged it up and still no turning on. Then I noticed my Efans were not on and when I looked at temp gauge was around 260, shit now what? I swapped in the efans not to long ago, fuse for AC was good, with an Efan swap is there a fuse to check or is it only the relays? Any ideas?

the can stuff is dangerous to use. especially if it has the "sealer in it. it can grenade your compressor. Id take it into a shop to get it completely evacuated and recharged properly. they will also check for leaks. since the R134a freon molecules are so sall, it is impossible to have a perfect seal anywhere in the system, so discharge over the years will happen. so a evac and recharge will help diagnose the problem. if it still does not work, it may be a pressure switch.
