My air stopped working so I bought a can of Freon checked the level before I put any in and it was low, so I filled it up to the exact middle of the green lines on gauge. worked for three days and now won't work again. haven't checked level of Freon yet. but what else could problem be if not leaking?

Welcome to 2CarPros.

You must have a leak. It isn't uncommon for a seal to begin leaking. Take a look through this link and let me know if it helps.

Also, here is a link that helps diagnose other types of AC issues:

Let me know if this helps or if you have other questions. Also, to confirm there is a leak, recheck pressure in the system to see if it's low.

Take care,
Joe
