You may have a bad door actuator. Its the motor that switches the door in the air box to different settings based on what you select on the control panel. Or worst case something broke or binding inside the heater box itself. Not super common but does happen. Ac not working could be the result of that but could also be a low charge in the system. Or codes in the computer can keep the compressor from turning on. Does it display low refrigerant on the dash when you turn the ac on?

No, when I turn on my ac I here a click from under hood I think thats my compressor turning on.
Also when I turn on my car I acn hear little motors running under dash prolbly those actuators you were talkin about, does that mean that they are working?
