Hi all.
Have an issue with my aircon loosing gas and the safety switch kick in and shuts off the aircon system. Its on a 09 SS Wagon.
Have had it gassed about 5 or 6 times, hoses replaced. Cannot see any dye leaking from anywhere. Compressor is working well, all the o rings have been replaced. Evaporator has been checked for leaks with a camera down a aircon vent and in the side of the box it sits in. Condenser isnt showing any leaks either.
The bloke who is doing the work is stumped on where its leaking, even gassed the system up to 300-400psi of nitrogen to see/hear a leak and nothing shows... Cant smell the gas or the dye through the aircon vents.
When the system is gassed with refrigerant it lasts about 3-5 days and the safety switch kicks in and shuts off the a/c. When it is gassed up it works fine without any issues, its just leaking somewhere.
Has anyone had or heard of a similar problem? Any info would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Kirbs
