No AC after coolant work

Fired up my X5 after being down for 2 weeks. Replaced the WP/t-stat, a number of hoses and both belts. Unfortunately I now have no AC. I have plenty of airflow, it's just not cold at all. In fact it's colder if I turn off the AC. It was 71 on the test drive yesterday, and tested AC at 68 (normal set-point) and max AC, both reacted the same.

My first guess, since it's the only thing I touched related to the AC, would be the belt. I torqued the belt as much as I could with the N62's god awful set-up and believe it's fine as there's no squealing or any weird noises, so I think that's fine.

Engine does react to me pressing AC button, so something is happening. I'll be hooking up my gauges, hopefully today so see what's going on. Just a bit frustrated that I went from glorious AC two weeks ago, and then after two weeks, nothing.
