System set - No leaks, compressor is kicking in and out with the switches.
I'm wondering if it could be the compressor?
A set of A/C gauges has 2 separate gauges (1 high/1 low). I'm assuming the low side was too high @120lbs. With a set of gauges, a competent A/C tech should have been able to diagnose if the compressor with the related components where working properly and if not what part of the system is faulty. They just removed the freon, added it back and charged you without diagnosing what the problem is?
It was a A/C computerized system unit - you hook up the hoses and it tests and will drain the system refill it .
They did that and it still doesn't work. They didn't charge me he said to give it a day - been several and no difference.
I'll schedule an appointment with them but I figured if done had a similar experience they could enlighten me 😉
