The low-pressure AC port on a 1996 Volvo 850 is located on the right side of the engine bay, near the firewall. It is typically found on the larger of the two AC lines, which is usually insulated with foam. To identify it, look for a port that is capped with a plastic cover, and ensure it's distinguishable from the high-pressure port, which is smaller and located nearby.
The 1996 850 doesn't have a high pressure port. Recharging is done through to low pressure side.

This is actually a trick question. There is NO High Pressure Port on the Volvo 850 Turbo. Service is done by connecting to the Low Pressure Side and using this access to both Evacuate and Service. Chrysler for a few years did not use a High Pressure Port and required connecting a Scan Tool to the OBDII Connector and taking readings this way but Volvo does not even offer this option. Todd
To add freon to a 1996 Volvo 850, first ensure the engine is running and the AC is set to the maximum cooling setting. Locate the low-pressure service port, typically found on the larger diameter AC line. Attach a refrigerant gauge and canister to the port, then slowly add freon while monitoring the pressure gauge to avoid overcharging. Always use the correct type of refrigerant specified for your vehicle, and consider consulting a professional if you're unsure.
