Default 2000 Beetle a/c blows warm air when sitting idle, gets cold again once driving

Hello, my wife's 2000 Beetle a/c blows warm air when sitting idle, gets cold again once driving, then back to warm again when sitting idle. This started happening when she left a light on and drained the battery. Ever since jump starting the battery, now car stalls a couple of times when starting and the a/c is acting crazy.

Any help would be much appreciated!!!!

Thanks,
Terry

Check for trouble codes first. Also make sure the cooling fans are operating.

Have you checked the A/C pressures on the high and low side?

Yes. I checked all the fuses and by doing so I reset something because no fuse was blown but after I was done the a/c (and stalling) works just fine now.

I'm a web designer so clueless but glad it worked.

Thanks for your time and help.
