My Escalade had started using freon, this began last year with the addition of a can. This year I am close to 3 cans. After poking around with a freon detector I found the culprit to be an A/C Refrigerant Pressure located on the compressor line down right next to the compressor.
The freon is leaking out of the internal connector pins so there's no fixing it other then replacing it. Here's my question, Will the Freon need to be removed from the system to replace this switch or is it one of those that seal itself on removal?
According to the service manual there is no warning or mention of freon removal before replacement but maybe its an assumption the system would be empty before replacing it.
Anybody know for sure?
Thanks,
Dan
