Learn how To Find and Repair AC Leaks. Air conditioner not blowing cold air? Leak in your A/C system? See how to recharge your A/C system, find the refrigerant leak, and fix it so you can get back on the road with cold air conditioning this summer.

I show you how to use UV dye in the refrigerant so that you can spot where the leak is and fix the problem. The R134a refrigerant system should be a sealed system with no leaks, but in this case the air conditioning compressor was leaking.

Its hard to decide who I like more. A young man who never shows his face and opens all his videos with "hey guys", or a middle aged man who starts his videos with "Rev up your engines!" and always seems to be yelling at me.

I love Scotty's videos! This young man here seems to know his stuff too. I don't care if they show their faces or not. Do they know what they're talking about? That's the key thing

They are BOTH equally good no matter what way you look at them. ChrisFix is very through and detailed in his videos. ChrisFix taught me how to clean my windows and other various parts of my vehicle better than professional quality. My vehicles are so clean dealers keep hounding me to buy my vehicles because they are kept in pristine condition. Scott is great with mechanical advice, ChrisFix will teach how to get the job done!

In the future, I might just get the refrigerant with uv dye in it and check again for leaks. Great job for doing a thorough leak detecting using uv dye. That was very helpful. Keep up the great tutorial guide. I love watching all your videos as they are all very informative.

@aaronautry1981 5 жыл бұрын

not a toyota owner here but doesn’t matter in this case because the subject of the matter is how to investigate a leak with simple gear you can find at any parts store or online. i used to be scared or intimidated by ac systems but after a little 1-0-1 on youtube about how to replace condensers and such, it’s not so “rocket-sciency” stuff anymore. i’m no mechanic by any measure. but i’m not an idiot soy boy that couldn’t change a wheel or tire or my own brakes or oil etc. this is a very helpful and simple to follow and understand video without being overwhelming and extra winded on everything. i already have my replacement ac condenser for my 2011 ford f-250 gasser but there is 👌nada video on how to replace that specific part for that specific year model and engine. it’s really frustrating. however after watching many ac condenser videos on a variety of models and makes, they all generally are the same concept of dismounting and inspecting and replacing.

That's what I thought, the issue is I'll have to bring it to a shop to get it all evacuated. Cause I do have good refrigerant in my lines. Just the compressor is making a wicked bad thumping noise (like a bad piston) occasionally when running. I saw another comment about how this could be caused by the shop who did my cooler flipping the recharge can all the way upside down feeding liquid into the lines.
