No cool air coming out of vents but you can hear the ac compressor on.

Blower turns on and stays on even when vehicle is switched off. The climate control is also unresponsive.

The Blower final stage fan resistor switch failed...result, fan blower will continue to run and drain the battery after a couple of hours after being parked. Listen for sporadic fan blower cycling well after the engine has been cut off. In addition, note air flow exiting the arm rest center console between seat. The air flow pressure will fluctuate in strength, but is noticeably obvious as a function that should normally be switched off. New fan blower switch repair will easily run you over $450.00. Be careful not to get caught up with having to replace the entire blower...not necessary.
