Angry Camaro A/C Problems

I have a 98 Chevy Camaro V6 and am having issues with the A/C. Whenever I first start it up, the A/C works fine on all speeds, etc. Then after I drive it for 20-30 minutes, the fan blower motor continues to run, but there is no air blowing from the vents at any speeds. However, if I turn the A/C switch off for 10-15 minutes and then turn it back on, the A/C works fine again for another 20-30 minutes before it stops blowing air again.

Does anyone have any idea to what might be causing this and what I can do to fix this issue? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Sounds like the blower motor might be on it's way out and overheating.

Re: Camaro A/C Problems

Thanks for the response! That's what we were thinking too...we wanted to get a second opinion before we started workin' on it. I guess it's time to get to work! Thanks again!

Re: Camaro A/C Problems

The fan blower motor works great but now I have another problem. Air is blowing semi-cool but not nearly as cool as it should. The A/C compressor stays on all the time but the low pressure side reads approximately 80-90 and the longer it runs the higher it gets. I took it to a mechanic and he said the orfice may be plugged or the compressor may be going out. However, I was thinking maybe this is a sensor problem. The system is full of freon but there is still no cold air blowing. What do you think?

Re: Camaro A/C Problems

They could be right with a plugged oriface tube, very possible, but hard to say. To be sure, I'd have a couple of other places look at it then.
