    Trianary- lo/hi and fan. Pretty sure that’s how it works. My WS had that. Freightliner has a bianary-hi/lo and a separate fan switch.

    I got an older house central air unit that is low and not cooling - in this heat we've been having lately, I'd kill for some regular freon!! LoL

    Me too.

    I'm tired of hearing the ac run constantly.

    People seem to be blowing out capacitors these days.

    You need 50 psi for the low pressure switch to kick in.

    If you got no power. You won't get freon in. Unless your using a recover machine.

    A full 12 oz can probably won't work for the minimum needed. If your truck holds 4 pounds.
