A/c stopped working, compressor wouldn't cycle. I added freon to system and comvaporatorpressor started cycling and a/c seemed to cool just fine. Next morning a/c dischared again. I added freon with a dye and found dye was dripping out of drain tube. Do I have a bad evaporator? Thanks in advance for any help-SK

Hi there,

Fair chance that this is the case, to prove it you can get an electronic sniff test done in the air vents as well, but the dye is a dead giveaway.
