Measure vent temp with blower on low/ control set to Recirc.
Also to see the max cool temp, use a spray bottle to squirt some water on the condensor.

You might want to try some detergent and garden hose to clean out the condensor and radiator fins. NOT HIGH PRESSURE HOSE.

59 deg is on low. the condensor looks good and i allready washed it out high side pressure is only 220 to 250 at 2000 rpm so i dont think its a condensor problem.
