Chrysler Repair: A/C Low Pressure Valve: 300M, 1999 chrysler 300m, chrysler 300m


Question
I have a 1999 Chrysler 300M , where is the a/c low pressure valve located?

Answer
Hi K,
The manual says the transducer is located on the valve in the discharge line. It must be near the right hand headlamp because it says "for the 3.2/3.5L application the passenger headlamp must be rotated out out of way to access the transducer". It appears to me to be located near the edge of the radiator on the right side, far foward in the engine compartment.  A 14mm open-end wrench will remove the tranducer from the valve and there may be a slight release of pressure but of no importance. Tighten new transducer to 50 inch pounds. The transducer has 3 wires: signal (dark blue), 5V (violet/white), sensor ground(black/light blue).
