Default Clean your ac condensor if you haven't yet!

I Was wondering why my ac wasn't blowing cold anymore, it has been over 90 degrees and the ac would not get cold only lukewarm.
I had my pressures tested and refrigerant level was at normal levels.
Went to the self serve car wash and sprayed down the ac condensor in the front with the pressure washer. Sprayed through the lower grill and upper grille, got it really good.

AC is now blowing ice cold on the lowest settings!

Make sure to clean the radiator/condensor if you haven't done so!

If you have the time, pull the radiator fans and back flush it the other way so the debris doesn't plug the engines coolant radiator.

I wish there were an easier way.
