Re: Air conditioning problem 900 1996

Hi Danny:

Well, I am surprised that nobody responded to this. I think that what the a/c people were referring to was whether the heater valve was stuck in the on position. Don't know for sure, but I doubt it. I think that this is an indication of freon level problems. What people on the Brickboard have said before (if I remember correctly) is that this is an indicator of low freon level. If the a/c shop is not sure take it to another one.

I do know that poor cooling can also be caused by too high a freon level for r134, but I am betting on too little freon.

Just as an aside, is your electric fan working OK?

Hope this helps.
