Default AC problems

I just had the ac repaired on my 93 850. The next day the fan cut out, but you can feel a little air coming out of the vents. I read the codes and it has multiple faults detected. I just can't believe that all these things went bad at once. Thought that if I reset the codes, things might be normal, but following the manual on resetting these codes is not working. Any clues? After the weekend I'll take it back to my mechanic to see if it is due to anything he did. I just don't want to dump anymore money into this car.

19 Years is normally the bail point on these cars. I think it's cheaper than a car note or may be cheaper than getting a newer one. I have seen several '97 - '99's that can be had for under $3,000 but you know they will all need some maintenance. One broken part can cause multiple codes.

Hope it works out for you.
