A/C Recharge...

My AC cooler does not work, it just blows in luke warm air...

I bought a recharge kit and located the pressure valve...the only one that would fit to the 134a or whatever # on the can, which matched what my manual said.

The guage displays full pressure without me putting any of the refrigerant in. Is there something I should know? I did not want to put any more refrigerant in if its full...which it is according to the guage...should i be releasing some of the pressure before trying to fill it?

I hear my compressor click on when I turn the AC on but it does not blow cold. Any info would be GREATLY appreciated...summer time is growing close and its miserable in Florida without AC in the summer!!! lol

when the compressor "clicks" the pressure should start to drop. if it doesnt start to pull down around 35-37 psi with 134a when the compressor is on.you might have a bad compressor. the click your hearing is a relay that engages the compressor. if you get no change in pressure after you hear the relay then i would call it a bad compressor.
