Need to know proper A/C charge level...
#1
My A/C keeps cycling on and off when it's supposed to be running, so I checked the charge level and found the low-side to be at 40-45psi
This seems a little high to me - I expected to see 5-25psi. If the system is overcharged then that will explain why it cycles off.
Does anyone know what psi reading I should get at the low side when the AC is on and at normal operating temp?
Thanks,
Scruit
