Answer
The low-pressure service gauge port valve is situated on the suction line of the air conditioning compressor, close to the RH shock tower.
In a similar vein, where exactly is the low pressure port?
This valve is positioned on the low pressure (suction) side of the system, in the line that travels from the compressor through the evaporator (firewall) and up to the condensor on that side of the system.
In a similar vein, do you fill your air conditioner on the high or low side?
The LOW side fitting is often found on the suction hose or line that runs from the accumulator to the compressor. It is also known as the LOW side fitting. In the line that runs from the compressor to the condenser, there is a fitting known as the HIGH side fitting.
Another question was how much freon does a 2010 Ford Focus use?
The Ford Focus 2010 consumes 18 ounces of Freon each year (R-134a).
How can you determine if your car’s Freon tank is running low?
There are a few of telltale symptoms to watch out for.
The temperature of the air in the room. Low freon is characterised by the presence of room temperature air coming from the vents, which is one of the most distinguishing symptoms.
Leaks that are visible. It goes without saying that a visible leak is another indication of low freon levels.
Clutch does not engage in any way.
Compressor has ice on it.

What is the negative aspect of an air conditioning system?
The low side, also known as the suction line, will be the line that will be linked to the compressor from the top or upper location of the compressor. It will be icy to the touch and may be encased in insulation for further warmth. This is the point at which freon enters the compressor as a liquid.
What exactly does a high low side pressure indicate?
Pressures on the low side are lower, while pressures on the high side are higher. When this occurs, it typically indicates that there is a constraint in the system or that the TXV/Orifice Tube has been obstructed or shut. It is possible that there will be a limitation at the TXV or Orifice Tube when there is a drop. If there is no drop, it is possible that there is a limitation upstream from the TXV or Orifice Tube.
Which is the lower side of the AC line, the suction or the discharge?
Evaporator outlet to compressor intake are connected via a line known as the suction line. SUCTION SIDE PRESSURE – Low side pressure (from the orifice of the expansion valve to the intake reed valve in the compressor). SUCTION THROTTLING – A control used to manage the flow of refrigerant from the evaporator to the condenser in a refrigeration system.
What is the location of the suction port on an air conditioner compressor?
The compressor has two ports, which are referred to as the inlet and outlet, or the’suction’ and ‘discharge’, respectively, of the compressor. The suction port is always the hole with the bigger diameter. Compressors are used to compress and discharge refrigerant. Refrigerant is drawn into the compressor and released out the outlet, which is directed toward the condenser.
Which of the following AC hoses has low pressure?
The Low Side Air Conditioning Hose is responsible for transporting refrigerant from the low pressure side of the air conditioning system back to the AC compressor on the other end. The expansion valve and the evaporator are located on the lower side of the air conditioning system.
What is the usual low side pressure of an air conditioning system in a vehicle?
When the temperature is 90 degrees Fahrenheit or less, the low-side pressure should be about 30 PSI. When the pressure is abnormally low or high, it indicates that there is a problem. Ideally, the high-side pressure will be about twice the ambient temperature + 50 PSI in a well functioning system.
