Default Airflow problem

I am having issues with the flow of air coming out the vents. After about 15 minutes of driving the flow stops, but I can still hear the blower blowing. Any ideas??

Your blend doors are closing. Try turning the system off and then after a few min turn it back on and see what happens.

I have noticed shutting off the car for a while makes it work again. How do I fix this?

Next time it happens dont turn the car off, turn the HVAC off, wait a few minutes and then turn it back on. Does it work again? Answer depends on this.

The low pressure switch might be bad causing the Evap to Freeze.
