Now that the weather is warmer, my 2007 Nissan Altima 3.5SL seems to be blowing warm air when the AC is turned on. I bought some refrigerant for hopefully an easy fix, but when I attached the gauge, it seemed to read within what was normal for the current outside temperature. I hooked up the extra refrigerant anyway, but the pressure dial jumps all the way to the right way past the max and just stays there. I'm hesitant to try it again as I'm afraid my arm will turn into an icy pink mist. It appears that the AC compressor isn't spinning, though I've read it could be low refrigerant causing the clutch to not engage? The RPM dial jumps a bit whenever I hit the AC button, and goes back down when I turn it off, but maybe that's just the engine preparing for the extra load of the compressor? I've checked and replaced the fuse under the hood marked 'AC', but still no dice. I'm going to check the compressor relay and other electrical connections, but I'm wondering about the weirdness with re-charging and if I should attempt it again, or does it mean the amount of refrigerant is fine?
