Air Conditioning not blowing correctly
Well long story short last year about this time my ac stopped blowing cold air. I wasn't too worried as I had a company car at the time so no real use for it. Now I am going into a different job with no company car so I have done a few things I needed to fix on it. Blower motor went great once I could find the correct one. Rear driver side window regulator was really simple. Now I went to charge the ac figuring that was the problem. Put in a whole can and it hovered right around 33-35 (it started reading 5). Lines are really cold especially on a humid day today in the mid 80'*. So I let the car run for a few min and got in and still really warm. The air on the two vents ment for the driver side were blowing warm air and the two on the passenger side were much cooler but didn't seem to be as cold as they should be. Any ideas? Does it need more coolant? Any ideas never had this issue before so I have no clue!!

Conditioning in title repaired...
Now lets see it we can get some repairs tips for your bend doors.
I assume the psi you stated was 33-35 on the low side.
If your Accumulator is icy cold, and warm air is still entering cabin, blend doors or actuator may be the problem.
I will let others more familiar with the 03 bonny comment further on diagnostics /repairs.

If you have duel zone HVAC the temp blend door could be the problem but if you don't have a full charge on the AC only the bottom half of the evaporator core will get cold causing only the passenger side to get cold. When you charged it did you use freon with die? The AC compressors are notorious for leaking.

If it started reading 5, that means your system was almost empty.....might have air in the system.....one can is not going to do the trick....
You can keep throwing cans in, or you fix it.....dye with black light, soap solution, sniffer, etc., will find the leak.....
Then after repair, you need to pull a vac and add oil, and the correct amount of refrigerant....
