Is the cooling fan running at full speed whenever the A/C is on?
Do you have a set of professional gauges for further testing?

Ambient? You mean with engine off? That would be way too low and probably out of refrigerant. If that is a running pressure, what was the high read at that time?

Yes, it was the term "ambient" that threw mean off. That means static or room temp. What is the high side at this time?

We don't make phone calls. You stated you had a set of professional gauges. Do you know how to use them?
