Default A/C Wont work after changing spark plugs

After changing the spark plugs the A/C fan will not come on, have changed out the three fuses everyone talks about on the forum, any other suggestions?

If you had romoved any part of the intake,
your throttle adaptation will be out of alignment.
It will not throw a CEL.
The tell tale sign is that the A/C will work, only when
over 2300rpms.
If that is the case, vag-com is required.
If not, "I got nothin"

Jeff, thank you, will the Hanes repair guide tell me about setting the trottle alignment and about the vag-com? Just a dad trying to fix his kids car, Thanks for your help.

There's a simple procedure for 'throttle body readaptation'.
It's posted on here somewhere. It's just a turn of the key in ignition, to the second 'notch' for a few seconds.
