Hot Accululator on new A/C Hot Air Again ?")(&&** 900

It was a short lived glory. The a/c ran cold for a few days, and now it is gone. I have a new compressor, evaporator, accumulator, orifice. It was evacuated and recharged with BG freezi quiet last Thursday.

Tonight, five days later, the a/c quit. Again. I felt the accumulator and it is hot to the touch, so I am guessing this is where to look. The a/c shop said the accumulator cycling switch is leaking through the plug.

I have a new cycling switch coming tomorrow to the dealership. Is the accumulator cycling switch tricky to put on, how much pressure on tightening? Anyone have any ideas if the new switch will get the system back in order? It has been a very tiring journey with Volvo a/c.
