High pressure
too low
High pressure
normal
High pressure
too high
Checking the pressure at temperatures between 15°C and 35°C for information only.
In general, the pressure should be approximately :
- for R134.a fluid, less than 2 Bars (Low pressure), and between 13 and 24 Bars (High pressure).
CHECKING PRESSURES (continued)
Low pressure

- Faulty pressure control valve.
- System blocked.
- Water in the system.
Low pressure
normal
- Cooling fan speed unsuitable.
- Faulty compressor.
- Circuit normal
- Presence of solid matter in the system.
