Hey Ray! I am working in a car AC only shop and I want to tell you that simple things sometimes are the solution. 7/10 times when a car comes with a high high side pressure, it is due to dirty and restricted radiators. Simple fix is to spray them with something that is good in disposing contaminated surfaces, like kitchen clean or something like that, then wash the radiators with a hose (through the front grill and under the plate) Most of the times this is the reason for high pressure in the high side of the AC. Also, to prevent leaks from brand new o-rings, lube them with some AC oil first!

@alexander, you are spot on! Condensers act like an air filter for the radiator and gathers years of dust, dirt, and bugs in the fins restricting air flow which results in increased pressures in the system, both high and low sides. The really only opportunity for refrigerant blockage is in the expansion (orifice) valve and the filter/dryer. All other components do not have refrigerant restriction opportunities due to tube size. Ray still doesn't check for oil quantities in replaced components to see how much oil he needs to add before firing off a repaired system. Oil runs with the refrigerant and does not remain fully in the compressor. This is why when systems are run with low refrigerant it ends up destroying the compressor over time (insufficient lubrication, making it noisy, like that previous Ford Escape unit) because there is insufficient flow to carry and return oil to the compressor. Also you are correct in recommending lube for new o-rings. Interesting to note that where there is a refrigerant blockage, there is a pressure drop and a corresponding drop in temperature of refrigerant across the blockage which can show up externally as sweating.

The term Dash comes from DashBoard which was a board on the front of Horse Carriages to stop mud and rocks being flicked onto the passengers by the horses hooves.

Dashboard or dash-board originated from the carriage trade as the front board in front of a buggy or sleigh was installed to keep dirt and mud from being slung up (or dashed up) on the driver from the horse(s) hooves as they were dashing along.

As Antanio wrote, I read in a copy of Ford Times (years ago) that the "dash" board came from horse-drawn wagon days, where the dash was where you put your feet to apply counter-force when stopping the team. When the horseless carriage was developed, they retained most of the terms used in a horse carriage. Besides using the angled wall between the carriage floor, they had to add a section on top of it to protect the occupants from a gasoline fire in the engine compartment. They added a "new" designation to this section, which they called a "firewall". The part of the car inside the cabin that contains the instroments and cover over the hvac assembly, wiring and ducting, is often cslked a "dash". But in reality it's actually called an "instrument panel" by automotive companies.

I have changed out my in line filter to an ajustible one so it could get colder. I also changed out the a/c filter drier. It had over a 100,000 miles on it.

I like the comments referring to horse drawn carriages, on early automobiles the 'dashboard' was the angled panel between the firewall and the floorboard (which was made from wood), exception being the "Curved Dash Oldsmobile". The instrument panel was called a dashboard because before seatbelts, people would dash their faces against it in collisions. Ray, check with your local Chevy/Gmc dealer about a replacement AC placard, may still be available along with other information decals.

A/C that works and works well is sure nice!

regarding a blockage in the expansion valve... read this a long time ago.. open up the system. on the downstream hose from the expansion valve, fill line with alcohol. Use an air compressor to blow the alcohol back through the expansion valve in a reverse flow direction to try to flush out the blockage. Do this multiple times, monitor what comes out of the upper hose feeding into the expansion valve to see if anything comes out. Alcohol will completely evaporate, leaving you a clean internal system to recharge.

New AC! Nice and shiny! 👧

Thanks for the video Ray epic failure and great recovery well done 👍❤❤ it. Enjoyed it totally 😂😂😂. Take care of yourself and family and be Blessed.

In horse-drawn carriages, the dash-board was a piece in front of the driver and passengers which would protect them from debris thrown up by the horses when they "Dashed" or went faster than a walk.

If your cabin supply temp is 73 or so and the cab is ambient at 92 or so that is pretty good. It means it's working. However the pressures are too high even for 93 ambient keeping in mind that once the engine speeds up the head pressure will also rise simply because auto A/C is variable capacity. I'm looking at an overcharged system with/or a plugged up condenser.

I was wrong Ray, I thought dashboard referred to a barrier upon which one would dash one's brains out due to an abrupt stop, not some horse related thing. Thanks for the new word origin learnings.

Dashboard. A protective board that prevented the driver from being splashed with dirt "dashed-up" from the horses' hooves, on a horse drawn buggy.

Just had a Jeep pull that crap on me. System empty so put some Freon in , leak was pretty instant. Pulled line of to change O ring but was one of those washer types…no body stocked them.

That is the best way of doing it once you know that cooling system is operating normally. IT HAS NEVER FAILED ME!

Best way to test for a clogged condenser is with a laser thermometer by checking the temp of the refrigerant going in and coming out, there should be around a 30* difference if there’s not then there is a restriction!

Products exist to flush condensers. Price and difficulty of remove / replace determine which to do.

A year or two ago I also was wondering why an automobile instrument panel was called a "dashboard". I asked the knower of all things "Why is the space in front of the driver and passengers in an automobile called a dashboard". The knower of all stated the same explanation as Ray stated below. It helps the driver and passenger clean when calling for more horsepower.

Aye Carumba! That's a lot of leaking 😮

My brother's high mileage Silverado had the same issue with the HAVC. I pulled and replaced the orifice, replaced the collector dryer, and recharged. I was afraid the compressor might be at fault, but all was good after the service.

Cleaning the dirt and debris from the evaporator is another good preventive maintenance item. I performed this step on two of my vehicles (20 year old and 26 year old) without ripping out the dashboard or drilling anything: 1) Purchase two cans of Lubegard 96030 Kool-It Evaporator and Heater Foam Cleaner. The kit comes with a can of cleaner and a cap with a long sprayer tube attached to it. 2) Locate the evaporator drain tube (may need to jack up the vehicle to access it). 3) Take the cap and insert the sprayer tube as far up the evaporator drain tube as possible, but make sure you leave enough room to attach the can to the sprayer tube. 4) Shake the can, then carefully attach the sprayer tube cap to it. 5) Place a container underneath the work area to catch any dirty liquid which drains out during this entire process. 6) Spray the entire contents of the can into the evaporator tube. The foam will expand through and around the evaporator. Remove the can and sprayer tube when empty. 7) Wait 15 minutes for the foam to break down the dirt and debris. 8) Start your vehicle and run the A/C on low for about 5 minutes. You should see the dirt and debris drain from the evaporator. 9) When the liquid draining from the evaporator turns clear, you're done. If the evaporator is really dirty, perform Steps 3-9 with the 2nd can of Kool-It. 10) If the second can isn't needed, store it for next time. Performing this maintenance item every 3 - 4 years will help keep the evaporator performing at an optimum level. The A/C in my vehicles are now blowing ice cold. One more important thing of note: If you have an older vehicle and your experiencing evaporator freezing issues, the most likely culprit is a defective expansion valve (located in front of the firewall where the two refrigerant lines leading to/from the evaporator are connected. This is an often-overlooked item when replacing the A/C compressor, receiver-dryer, etc. That happened on my 26-y.o. vehicle, so once that was replaced, the evaporating icing issues ceased. Based on the lessons learned from that incident, when I had the A/C compressor, receiver-dryer, etc. replaced on my 20-y.o. vehicle, I also had the expansion valve replaced as a preventive step.

Cleaning the evaporator is also used to get rid of smells from the dirt, animal wastes in the underdash HVAC systems ducts. Many times the drains will get clogged and keep them in.

Dashboard - similar to the firewall on vehicles with engines. 🎼 dashing through the snow .. Kept the mud and snow, etc, from soiling your shoes and pants.

Dashboard is a mud guard placed above, and at an angle behind the horses on wagons. Horses have a tendency to flip their Hooves as they trot and they throw up dirt and mud and other such things.
