I have had the compressor replaced and drove the van for alittle over a year. The air condition no longer cooled. Took it to garage to be checked for leaks, the garage found no leaks and recharged the air conditioner. The van cooled for less than 2 weeks and I now have no air conditioner working again. I have spent over 1000.00 already in the air conditioning system. Can you please help me?

HI there,

If the refrigerant is low you must have a leak, this is normally found you adding a dye that is visible under ultra Violet light, it is a quick and simple way of finding leaks, they should also try an electronic sniffer to check the vents as i may be in the evaporator under the dash and this will be impossible to view the the dye.
