Don't use soap and water.. if the leak is on the low pressure side, it could draw the soap and water into the AC system, and cause further contamination and damage. Use a halogen sniffer.. if you think it's the evaporator, run the AC, stick a halogen sniffer in the vent by the passenger side door.. if that's it, the alarm will go off.
Your pressure is much too high, by the way.
i think you subtract the evaporator temp from the outside temp?
I think you mean the evaporator coil. It is the radiator like devise inside the dash that is part of the ac system.
I think the frieghtliners are numbers 60-69
hood up right front of motor i think That would be the condensor. AC Evaporator is inside the dash on the passenger side.
Because Freightliner is one of the largest manufacturers and dealers of commercial trucks, is is likely that there is a dealer closer than you think. You can find out where the closest dealer is by looking in your local yellow pages or by calling their customer service phone number, which is 800-FTL-HELP
No I think you will need an 18000 condenser for an 18000 BTU.
Your question needs more information as to what you are trying to connect !!!!!!!!!!!!! Ok, on the evaporator side you have a relay, fan unit and i think some sort of temprature control unit that is bolted in front of the evaporator. I need to reconnect this lot. The problem being the push-in connectors are not there on loom. I have the wiring at the evaporator. "Small fire melted the connectors." If i can determan what does what i can figure it.
Luckily, you’ll usually get telltale signs from your HVAC system if your evaporator coil has problems. These include: Warm air from vents: If the air coming out of your vents feels warm, that’s a sign that something is wrong with your evaporator coil. In most cases, this means that the coil is frozen and can’t absorb heat properly. Rising energy bills: A dirty or damaged evaporator coil will cause your AC unit to work harder than normal; this, in turn, will lead to higher energy bills. So, if your bills have been rising for no apparent reason, it might be time to have your system checked out. Hissing or bubbling noises: These sounds usually indicate that there’s a refrigerant leak somewhere in your system. If you hear these noises, it’s important to shut off your AC unit and call a professional as soon as possible. If any of these issues are present, and you’re able to confirm an evaporator coil concern through our team, the biggest question becomes whether to repair or replace the coil. This decision usually comes down to a few different factors, including the age of your system, the severity of the damage, and the cost of repairs. In most cases, it’s more cost-effective to simply replace an old or damaged coil; however, you might be able to get a few more years out of a good coil if it only has minor issues.
a shop is costing me 1100.00 to replace little to much i think.
I think its under the glove compartment. If i remember right that's where it was when i worked on my teachers 93 in auto shop
"you" don't, unless you have been trained in some sort of refrigeration/air conditioning repair. It takes a technician (as in, someone with knowledge, not necessarily a certified repair person) with the proper tools to do this type of work. Some of these 'proper' tools are: Vacuum Pump Refrigeration manifold with gauges Tube cutter Solder Solder flux Freon Soldering torch Various copper fittings Specialized valves And, of course, the evaporator itself. It is possible to get a general how to repair book on refrigeration that explains how to go about the job. But you should have some experience and familiarity with the tools and the basic use techniques. The one thing that will be readily available are the specifications for the Freon; they are usually stamped on a plate near the evaporator or compressor. OK, so you say you aren't convinced. Here is a 'general' step by step: Purchase the evaporator for the refrigerator. Purchase the required fittings and valves for this job. Purchase the correct Freon for the refrigerator. Cut the evaporator lines at the correct location and remove the old evaporator. Solder on the copper tee fittings on the compression and expansion lines on the compressor side and the evaporator side. Solder the valves to the copper tees (it may be possible to purchase the valves already formed with the tees). Hook up the gauges to the valves and the vacuum pump. Hook up the vacuum pump, through the gauges, to the system Pull the proper vacuum on the system. Introduce the proper amount of Freon into the system. Observe and test for leaks and proper operation. Remove the gauges from the valves, and cap off the valves (the valves are now a permanent part of the system). You are done. If you still think you can handle it, find that refrigeration book, and start reading.
i think its the circulatory system
