It is supposed to. The freon gas returned in the low side has been changed to a high pressure liguid by the compressor. That process made it hot. Oddly enought, when that hot liguid is sprayed thru small outlets into the evaporator coil, it turns cold.
No, the "liquid line" is the little line, also called the "high side" line. When operating properly, it should be hot, sometimes very hot.
High side and low side refer to the pressure in the ac system. Ie The high side is the high pressure line and low side is the low pressure line.
If your AC works and you can fell the metal lines with your hand, the high side is the line running to the radiator area of the truck first. It will be hot from the pressure. The cold line that is normally dripping with condensation is the low side at the fire wall, pasenger side.
The low side will be on the accumulator and the high side will be on the discharge line.....
it's in the high pressure side of the ac line
The one that is in the biggest line, You have a small line and a big line. The big line is the low side, and the small line is the high side.
High Side Small Diameter Hose, Low Side Large Hose. The High Side Runs Hot, The Low Side Cold. Best I Can Do With Info You Provided.
On a 1988 Chevy Beretta, the high side AC service port is located on the passenger side of the engine bay, typically near the firewall or on the AC line running towards the condenser. It is usually a smaller fitting compared to the low side port, which is located on the larger diameter line. Make sure to use the correct tools and precautions when servicing the AC system.
The low side ac port is the line to charge in. the low side has a different size connection from the high side to prevent using the wrong port.
low side of a/c is the larger diameter line it the smaller fitting(charge side) vs. high side is your smaller line larger fitting
They may be marked "S" and "D" for suction (low side) and discharge (high side). A simpler way would be to look at the lines going into and out of the AC.... the smaller line will be the high pressure line, while the larger line will be the low pressure line. The low pressure line will connect at the compressor inlet, and the high pressure line will connect at the compressor outlet.
The low side is always the big line on the a/c system. The little line is the high side.
