Leak Test - Refrigerant System

DIAGNOSIS
To diagnose the Electronic Climate Control (ECC) System in the shortest time and with the least amount of effort, it is important to know how a properly functioning system will perform. For diagnosis of all ECC functions, refer to CLIMATE CONTROL DIAGNOSIS.

LEAK TESTING THE REFRIGERATION SYSTEM

A refrigeration leak test should be performed on the system whenever a leak is suspected AND after performing a service operation which disturbs the lines or connections. Many methods and special tools are available for this purpose; however, no matter which tool is used, patience and diligence are the biggest keys to success.
