Default Air always hot

Ok guys, next problem. If I turn on the a/c, or any air, it will run cold for a minute, turn hot for a while then back to cold. This cycle is all I can get out of her. It's a digital control. Also, the dealer mechanic changed the heater core. Could he have screwed anything up?

Your compressor is most likely kicking on and off most likely low on freon

Run the HVAC diagnostics and see if you get anything interesting:

Does this problem happen both while your idling in park, and driving the car?

Ok guys, I'm very confident it's the blower module. I put a retrofit kit on, and surprise, the dealer left the damn a/c bone dry. I'll keep you guys posted.
