2000 f150 when I try to charge the AC it will not take freon...any suggestions??

 

Do you have the A/C on Max and high speed fan? Do you hear the compressor kick on at all? Do you have the valve on the can open (not raeally a dumb question)? It needs to be fully open. If yes to all- yiou have a major ***** leak! My wife's 03 Explorer had a major A/C leak. The system held the refrigerant for about a minute-discoverd cracks on both sides of condenser. Try putting a leak detector in. Harbor Freight tools also carries a refrigerant gas detector for about $69 bucks or so which works well. I have one and that is how I located my wifes leaks- actually her truck's leaks. In any case you should hear the compressor turning on at least briefly.

 

Ok thanks. Ill try the leak detector. Thanks alot

 

you can buy r134 that has leak detector in it ....you find the leaks using a UV lights .... also listen for a hissing sound in the lines
