what is wrong with my car's A/C? I just replaced the condenser and the compressor..but.......?

Question

but...... it's still not working.... the A/C was working before but then I found out that there was leak from a tiny hole in the condenser...so I replaced the condenser. Then when I recharged it again, the compressor will only take 1/2 of the R34 can with oil in it. So then I replaced the compressor with a new one but it still not taking the whole can of R34 with oil in it. It only took 1/2 of the can. Maybe it is my A/C receiver/dryer. I did not replace my A/C receiever. Could it be the A/C receiver?

Answer 1

Dont replace your a/c receiver.
Vacuum the full system and then charge R 34 again

Answer 2

more effective than possibly you've an air pocket on your cooling equipment and also you may listen the sound coming from the motorized vehicle's heater middle. I had an same problem with my automobile previously. To eliminate the problem you want to open the radiator cap, turn on the heater, and "rub down" or shop squeezing the better radiator hose at the same time as the engine runs till the air pocket works that is way out. you'll see the coolant aspect go down once the air pocket clears out.

Answer 3

Hey Johney

Have you tried pumping your A/C system down with a vaccum pump? You would be suprised at all the "liquid" cooant and oil that remains in a system that has only lost its' "pressure". Just "recharcharge" alone is not sufficient, you need to pull a vaccum on it in order to get the proper amount of coolant in the system.

Answer 4

vac it for a hour and at around 26inch pounds vac it will empty the can not running -anytime you replace the compressor you should replace dryer orifice and flush system -----chilling in 110 temps

Answer 5

Anytime you open up a system, the reciever drier has to get replaced. It fill up with moisture from the air.

Answer 6

before that try vacuuming out system and and replace orifice tube in lines
