Default A/C issues

I have a C4 with 75,000 miles on it, everything has worked fine until a couple of weeks ago.

I turned the key on and lo and behold got the dreaded blinking lite on my ac console, and it started blowing warm air.

I got some r134 and tried reloading it, unpluging the fuses, and battery cable and resetting the system, just getting warm air. Pressure reads normal

Randomly unplugged the battery cable and one night did get cold air back out of it, but as I drove the car it seemed to hesitate and after a while the console started blinking again and warm air.

I have not been able to duplicate that success since then.

I got into diagnostics and have no error codes so I am at a loss as to what to look for next.

If anyone has any ideas I am at rmcnally@bellsouth.net

Is the compressor clutch engaging when you turn the AC on?
