How to Determine if a Car's Air Conditioning Needs Refrigerant Recharge?
1 Answers
When the air conditioning system is running normally and continuously, the presence of bubbles in the sight glass of the car's air conditioning pipeline indicates insufficient refrigerant (Freon) levels, requiring a recharge. If there are no bubbles in the sight glass of the car's air conditioning pipeline and no temporary bubbles appear when the air conditioning is turned off, it indicates an excessive amount of refrigerant, necessitating discharge. When there are no bubbles in the sight glass of the car's air conditioning pipeline but a temporary bubble appears when the air conditioning is turned off, it indicates the refrigerant level is normal.
