Default 1999 Air Conditioner Issue

If I turn on my fan the air conditioner comes on without pushing the AC button. Turn the temperature control **** to hot and the compressor stays on. Any thoughts as to the issue I am facing. I am the second owner of this 41K corvette and babied since 2007.

If the outside temperature is above 38 degrees, that is normal operation.

Before it seemed that when I pushed the button for ac then I would definitely feel cooler air. Now I just turn on the fan and cool is already coming out without the ac button engaged.
