compressor won't engage with either too much or too little refrigerant pressure. Check the sight glass and or pressures...likely you need a charge.

Are you at least getting hot air blown inside when the A/C is turn on?

It was working and then I pulled and filled up with gas and it didn't come back on when i resarted the car...That is why I checked the fuses. Is there a realy I can check?

So, your not getting any hot air? IOW - the fan is not coming on???

the fan is coming on just air... the light for the A/C is not coming on...liek the compressor is not kicking in.

On my '90 535 when the freon was low the AC light still came on, but just no cold air. I don't know if this situation would be similar on your '92, probably a different HVAC system by then.

Like George suggested earlier; you should get your refrigerant pressure checked, you may need a charge. Let us know what you find.

Don't know what happend but when I satrted the car to go home from work it worked perfectly and I just drove 200 miles round trip (work related) and all is ok?
