Hello and thanks for donating
Do you have manual A/C controls or a digital (automatic) A/C system? When you say the A/C goes out, do you mean it blows warm air or it doesn't blow anything at all?

Ok, if clearing the computer helped it for a bit then it would seem as though the computer itself is the fault. Cleaing the computer would not effect any other component aside from the computer itself so if it fixed the issue then swap it with a known good one and see if it corrects the issue.
