AC LOW SIDE PRESSURE TOO HIGH – HOW TO DIAGNOSE THIS PROBLEM

It’s not an uncommon problem with AC systems to find the pressure on the “low” side of the compressor being too high. As a result of this, you’ll probably notice your air conditioning not working correctly. And that? That’s frustrating. You know that feeling when you open the car door on a hot, humid afternoon, and it feels like hell itself comes bellowing out? Since I live in England, that’s not something I have to worry about too much. However, for those of you from warmer, sunnier parts of the world, it could well be the ultimate kick in the teeth when the AC stops working. One of the (many) possible reasons for your AC not working is an imbalance in pressure. When the compressor’s low-pressure side is too high, it inhibits the system’s ability to cool the incoming air.
