way to much refridgerant added! you need special tools and gauges to do A/C............... they will detect leaks too. take it in for a service. you may have done more damage. they can remove excess amount the right way to the right level

This van a suspect has dual (side to side) climate controls. Check controls. If are in correct position a blend door in heater box may be bad,test before throwing parts at it as some parts in the hvac system can be sssspppppeeeennndddyyyyy!
