Hello dsouris: Locate the A/C accumulator on the left inner fender well. This will be a round aluminum cylinder with two lines coming out of it. Follow the large line that runs back to the firewall. You should see a shadder valve in this line. This will be the suction line or low side line. This will be the line used to charge the A/C system. If you need further help please just ask. If this information please rate the information as it helps.Thank You for using FixYa. Roger

Find the dryer for the ac and just before it is a Schrader valve that should be the low side of the ac. The refill cans you buy today will only fit on one of the valves. Good Luck

Searching for the location of the a/c low-side service port in a 2003 Monte Carlo to attach auto air conditioner R-134a with Stop Leak

The low pressure port in the AC system is between the evaporator which is in the heater/AV housing in the dash. The line between that part and the compressor is the low pressure or suction line. You should find a connector in that line that has a cap on it. When you take the cap off, it is a snap on quick disconnect with a "tire stem valve" in it. Be sure to screw the cap back on with you are finished.

Thanks for using FixYa.

Look at the firewall directly behind the engine. You will see the aluminum AC line projecting out from under the cowl shelf. There is a small black plastic cap on the low side port.

I have a 04 Monte Carlo ss and need to add ac charge. Is the low side port along the firewall or the one that sits by the air cleaner?

The Air Conditioning Ports (High Side and Low Side) are different Sizes.

The High Side is Larger and RED
The Low Side is Smaller and Blue

ALWAYS FILL on the LOW SIDE

2003 monte carlo a/c works of and on,already put freon in twice and the security light omes on and also the traction active light comes on

Re the a/c. Get a can of red tek sealer. make sure the engine is cold or you won't get the connector on to the low side port to seal properly. Follow the insrtuctions that comes with the can. Just adding the refrigerant doesn't stop the leak

Searching for the location of the a/c low-side service port in a 2000 Monte Carlo to attach auto air conditioner R-134a

trace the 2 aluminum lines coming out of the firewall. The one that goes to the compressor has the low pressure port you are looking for. It might be on the dryer (silver cylinder).
