Purchase 1 more can and allow it enough time to fully get into the system. You can have the car running while this is happening so it warms the can allowing it to charge faster. Let me know.
thank u i was hoping it could b a simple fix n i have recharged another vehicle b4 n used the bigger can but auto zone only had the smaller ones i will try one more smaller can n hope for the best! but my friend tried explaining to me that if the system isnt fully recharged then there isnt enough pressure or something like that to get the pump to turn on! im quite mechanically inclined for a girl but this car is new to me! thanks 4 the advise i think its worth a shot! thank u:)
Bad advice! The car MUST be running to properly charge an ac system. It is not optional, and “warming the can” will not help it go in faster. The can is over 100 psi so it will go in just fine. You cannot simply tell a person to “add another can,” as it is vitally important to not overcharge a system. For DIY recharging, buy a gauge, or a can with a gauge. It also helps to put a thermometer with a probe into an ac vent in your car to monitor the change in temp as you add refrigerant.
