A/C - Freon Leak and/or Low Charge


SOURCE: Isuzu Service News

TITLE: Freon Leak and/or Low Refrigerant Charge

APPLIES TO: 03-05 Ascender

SERVICE TIP:

Condition:

When the high or low side port cap is removed, gasket often will not be retained within the cap, and may fall to the floor and/or get lost. The cap with gasket is the primary seal for the high and low side ports. If the cap gasket is missing, it could cause a small refrigerant leak and over time lose enough Freon to create a customer complaint.

Correction:

When servicing A/C system or inspecting for a Freon leak, verify that the port cap gasket is present and properly installed.
