Where are the aircon regas valves ??? 850 1996

Hi,

I've wanting to regas my aircon but can only find one valve. The aircon guy explained that 2 are required, one for the input of gas and the other to monitor the pressure.
We looked but couldn't locate the second one, where is it ???

Thanks

    Volvos do not have a high pressure port for the AC, just the low pressure. Any good AC shop will know that.

    The one that you want is up front behind the right front headlight. You only need the one. You can buy the refrigerant with a gauge for about $20 usd. Start the engine, turn the air on full, connect the refrigerant, open the valve, and read the gauge. When it gets to where it should be, shut it off. I'm assuming you have a cabin filter? If not, add one.
