That us usually a symptom of the electric cooling fan not working. Check that and if it's not, then try jumping power and ground to it to find out if the fan motor itself is good.

I have the same problem with my you should check and make sure you have the correct freon level in your car and that all fuses are still working and not blown. If that does not help you could check and make sure you don't have any heater air door actuators that are clicking and not working or that the AC compressor control valve is working. Unfortunately for me I had to replace my whole compressor to get my AC to work again.
