Want this question answered?
Depending on the year, make and model this can either be a sign of the low on freon or the controller is bad......
Refrigerant... it's only Freon if it was manufactured by Dupont and marketed under that name... and a 2000 model year vehicle will use R134a refrigerant and PAG compressor oil.
Check the following.......... 1. Power and ground to the compressor clutch coil.. 2. Pressure switches and relays.. 3. A/C -heater controller.. Without the year, make and model its very hard to narrow it down..
It depends on the year and witch type of freon you have but on a 2003 model it will take 1.6 pounds of R134a freon................
To give you the correct amount of freon I would need to know the year, make and model of the vehicle that you are working on....
It will depend on the make, model and year of the refrigerator that you are working on........
form_title= Compressor Oil form_header= Replace the compressor oil in your car. What model compressor do you have?*= _ [50] Has the compressor ever been replaced?*= () Yes () No What type of oil does your car use?*= _ [50]
Depending on the year, make and model check the following............. 1. Freon levels. 2. Pressure switches. 3. Relays and sensors. 4. Thermostat..
If the system is low on freon the a/c compressor will cycle on and off in short intervals. The compressor is located at the lower driver's side section of the engine. The center of the pulley will move and stop as it cycles. You should be able to hear it cycling also. Since it is an older model car you will probably have to use R12 refrigerant which is not available at most autoparts stores. A qualified technician should be able to recharge your a/c but the problem will most likely persist because of a leak somewhere, either in the lines or the condenser/evaporator.
Depending on the year, make, model and what type of freon it takes it can range from $100.00 to $350.00 dollars.....
fff
battery will run down and die, may leak First answer doesn't make sense.... All ac systems no matter what the model have blow off saftey valves either on the compressor and or on the manifold lines near the compressor. So if for some reason high side pressure exceeds the limit and jumps to over 400psi the valve will open venting the freon into the air it will do this until no freon is left in system. Good luck.
