Kix AC Not Cooling

My 2008 Nissan Kix with a gasoline engine has an AC problem. It's stopped cooling, and the system doesn't switch on. I've checked the AC relay, which seems fine. Could this be faulty valves within the AC system? Has anyone experienced this?

I had a similar AC issue on my old BMW 3 series. The blower motor was fine, but the temperature control seemed to be the culprit. Is yours blowing any air at all?

The blower is working fine, but the air isn't cold. It's as if the compressor isn't engaging. Did replacing the temp control fix the issue entirely in your case?

Yes, replacing the temperature control unit fixed my BMW's AC problem. However, given your compressor isn't engaging, it sounds more like a valve issue. Honestly, I would take it to a workshop. AC work can be a pain.

Thanks for the advice. I took it to my local mechanic, and it turns out that some valves in the AC system had failed. Total repair cost was 1000€. Appreciate the input!
