You find the AC low pressure at the top of the compressor, orientated toward you , facing the front of the vehicle. You can also follow the compressor line to reach the port.

The valve is covered a plastic cap covering it.
Near the compressor you find two ports, the high port and low port.

To find out which one is the low port, run the air conditioner for a couple of minutes withthe engine on.
Then turn off the care and touch the lines from compressor to the two ports covered with plastic caps. Only one of the pipes will be cold, the cold line will lead you to the low port.

Regards.

AC won't turn on 2001 Chevy suburban

Most likely the system has pressure in it discharged
If the cluch spins the compresser will not work with out enough pressure to make the low pressure valve open .The compressers them selves are pressed together and then to leak .Look for green dye around the middle of the compresser.

Where is low side of air conditoner

There are 2 lines coming from the firewall on any vehicle that has ac. One is the high presure the other is the low presure. Follow each line until you find fill valve.

This valve is used to fill the system. It will be covered by a plastic cap that screws on. Each side, the high and low has one of these valves. Often the cap is labeled with an "L" for low or "H" for high. Another way to tell is to flip the caps upside down. The low presure side will always be the smaller of the 2.

Where is the lower pressure valve

low presure AC port could be under the front wing like a ford focus on the drier canister but some renaults do not have one they only have one filler point with a large valve so you think it only has a high pressure port but in reality its the low pressure with the big valve so you swop the pipes around the AC machine ,look to see if this pipe is going to the low pressure side of the pump its a thicker pipe is the clue .

2004 Lincoln LS A/C Valve

In order to charge, you must locate the low pressure valve to install the refrigerant. The low pressure valve is between the compressor and the evaporator. Do not charge on the High Pressure side, The high pressure valve is between the compressor and the condenser. To locate the low pressure valve, follow the line that comes from the compressor and routes toward the firewall. The valve will be somewhere on that line. Do not overcharge. The amount of pressure that is needed on the low pressure side will depend on the ambient outside temperature.
