Hey guys I had my A/C recharged and it leaked out. I am guessing its a O-Ring that is bad so I was wondering if any one run into this problem or know if there are any other seals that could/should be replaced. Thanks!

 

There could be numerous possibilities. I would add a cheap can of freon with dye and let it run through the system. Then get those ugly yellow glasses and check for leaks with a black light. If you take it to a shop, they will pull a vaccum test on it and try it that way.

 

I had the same pro theres two o rings on the front of the conder and I swaped both and now it holds charge,but yours could be leaking some where eles get the dye to find ur leak..

 

The leak was coming from the front of the compressor it looked to be the line but I wasnt using the dye so I could not get close to it =/

Bighead222^ where did you get the O rings for the A/C?

 

Any info on the O ring size or where to buy them from? Universal or specific sizes? thanks!

 

Hi,

I saw your post on replacing O-Rings in your ES300 A/C system. I measured one for the Condenser manifold and it measured 7/16 ID, 1/16 cross section but when I replaced it with a new HNBR they do not seal properly. Can anyone help identify the proper o-rings for the condenser and compressor lines?

Thanks. Carey
