    What can I do to fix my 2018 Prius Prime Advanced? AC won't blow cool air and only blows hot air; AC selection on screen isn't immediately selectable on start up; and when it becomes selectable, it is erratic. Blown fuse? Software problem? Ideas please. Thank you!

    low refrigerant. When the car heats up, the gases expands and pressurizes the system. this releases the low pressure cut-off solenoids; that's why your system will operate after warm-up. Take it to an AC shop to get it diagnosed.
