Angry Intercooler replaced & now A/C doesn't work

Wondering if they are related. Received my Lightning back from the dealership for the intercooler replacement. Just turned on the Air Conditioning & Nada, Zero, no cool air. The air coolness is the same as the vent.
Doesn't even make that wierd noise when you turn on the AC nor that stink smell when you turn it off.
Think they disconnected some hoses related to the AC?

Question

My friends 99 has the exact same problem. They told him that he needs a $500 compressor, how strange is that.

Does the Compressor run?

It may be as simple as a disconnected wire, or as involved as a leaking refrigerant connection. If it's a wire connector off, they probably accidently knocked it loose or simply forgot to reconnect it. If it is a refrigerant leak the chances are pretty good someone was aware when it happened & heard the leak. The question is; will they quickly resolve the problem without giving you a hassle? Good luck.
