First you said freon level is OK?
how did you check?

Please post the low pressure (static) reading...
hopefully you have A/C gauges both HIGH and LOW sides...???
Also is the CEL on?
IS this front only OR front and rear A/C?
Do you have the instructions to access the Heater A/C module for codes.....
IF NOT let us know auto or manual heater A/C control panel and someone will post procedure.

May sound overwhelming BUT we can walk you thru

PS: trivial point BUT important your vehicle does NOT use freon.
R-12= freon R-134a=surva

Did you have someone hook up and a gauge and ck the high & low pressures? And did you ck the fuses? Also ck for power and ground at the compressor. If you are under 70k, you want to ck with the dealer for a A/C recall. Use r134a freon not r12.
