a/c evaporator

Bought a used 1999 SE a few months ago. A/C worked fine, and seller had receipts for new compressor and clutch, expansion device, accumulator/drier. A/C worked fine until.... one day when started it abruptly stopped blowing cold air. Tried topping off refrigerant, no good.
Tried the on board diagnostic (forget which buttons to punch-I think it was three of them simultaneously)and the number "2" was displayed. Does anyone know what that indicates?
Brought it to my Indy Saab mechanic, and he diagnosed it as the evaporator being bad, and quoted $1000 to replace it.
Couple of questions: 1) do evaporators just go, and then no cooling? Or does the cooling become progressively less effective?
Is $1000 for a new evaporator a fair quote?
Thanks in advance for any responses.
