AC suddenly not working
I dropped my car off last night to get a tire replaced, and when I came to pick it up, the AC was only blowing hot air (it was in the 80s today). When I open the hood, and turn the AC on for a listen, i can hear what I can only describe as a loud microwave running. I never noticed this sound when the AC worked.
Could this possibly be from low freon, or am I looking at a much more costly repair?

I should add that after I parked the car for about half hour-hour i noticed a hissing still coming from the area of the AC compressor.
I am thinking it is a loose connection or faulty seal of some kind, and it just needs to be tightened/replaced and recharged.
