Cadillac Repair: Recharging AC/ No cold air, electronic leak detector, recharging ac

Question
Hi Bill,
I have a 1998 Catera and my AC does not blow cold air. Can you tell me where is the port at so i can try to refill the AC and if that doesn't work, what should i do ?

Answer
obviously you have a leak in the A/C system and you are losing the freon from the system.

You need to use an electronic leak detector to find and fix the leak, Then evacuate all the atmospheric air from the system using a vacuum pump and then recharge the system with freon.

Simply adding freon will only leak back out again. If you want a picture of the low side fitting to add freon, E-mail : onlineautohelp@msn.com
