2008 XC70. My AC was blowing ice cold right until I changed a bad coil pack. It immediately started blowing hot. The compressor clicks on and the clutch is turning. I checked the fuse. It was good. Is there compressor associated relay? If so, where is it located? I don't see any unconnected AC plugs. I also read that some ECUs do something to protect the compressor from misfires. I'm unsure if this is the case with an XC70. I have not checked the refrigerant levels yet but the AC was blowing cold seconds before the coil pack change out. I haven't noticed a catastrophic leaks or freon release. Thanks for any and all help.

You bumped a connector somewhere , probably on the low pressure sensor
