no cold air from ac

I have no cold air from the air conditioning. Front or rear. The compressor runs and condenser sweats, so I know it is running. So, my conclusion is the blend actuator. Thoughts?

If it is a front only problem, it is a blend door axle. If it is a rear only problem it is a blend door actuator. To lose cooling in both it is something else.

I have read to spray cold water on condensor, see if it works then. I just have no clue when it comes to AC.

Update- mode door was not fully seated to ac. Mode door actuator gears were out of sync. I fixed both, still only got ac to 64°. So, bought hose with gauge, added one can freon with dye, 2 cans regular. Ac is cooling, not perfect yet. Now to search for leak. I hope it is something cheap and easy......lol
