I recently bought a used 1998 Bonnevile SE. The fan works but blows warm/hot air when you turn on the A/C.

No it does not. I have checked the fuses both under the hood and under the dash. They look OK.

you can get a set of cheap AC hoses from a place like harbor freight. you should be able to find them for about 40 bucks.

they dont have to be of very high quality, as i suspect you will not be doing a lot of AC work.

then you just hook it up to the service ports on your car to see what the pressures are.
