I know this is an old message to another, but I would like to be walked through this procedure. I have pressure, a working compressor, but can't seem to fill the freon due to the pressure, BUT no cold AC, only ambient temperature. It must be something simple. I already found the leak with dye and repaired it... it was actually the high side pipe that was leaking. I replaced it today and found I can't get more freon into the system... all this time I thought I was completely out. I don't get it!

I moved your post to a new thread.

Did you pull a vac on the system after the repair?
