I drive a 2003 Corolla. About four months ago my AC stopped cooling. It would blow air but it wasn’t cooling. After about a week (should have taken it in I know but I got lazy) it started working good as new on its own. Well today I blew a fuse when I plugged my phone charger in. (Took out the radio and my phone charger port.) I pulled over and changed the fuse. Radio worked, phone starts charging, AC stopped blowing cold. Coincidence? Any help will be appreciated.

Have the A/C checked regardless. It may have a small leak and it may now be low on refrigerant.

I would suggest pulling the fuse for the A/C and cleaning the contacts.
