Hey I have a 2019 Peterbilt 579
I replaced the relays , ac compressor, and drain system and recharged Freon
every time I take to someone they say their is no leaks… and just put more Freon
I pay them $3-500 just to add a lil Freon and they say it’s nothing wrong w my truck
then I leave my ac blows cold as ever for a day and then the next day after driving for a minute my ac stops working again
does anyone have any advice
REPLACE EVERYTHING AC STILL NOT WORKING :(

Allow me to tell a story about my old 1995 Chevy S-10 pickup. After I bought it I started to notice the AC was not working right. Several compressors later I did some checking and was told most likely there was small metal trash in the system being trapped in the condenser after something failed big time in the system. These small metal parts over time were ripping apart the seals in the compressor. I finally had to take my pickup to a mechanic and he replaced the condenser as well as all the parts under the hood. After he did that repair I never had any further issues with that AC. The day I signed the title over that AC was still working very well.
The basic systems are the same. My guess is you have a leak in the compressor. Next time you put freon in the system get them to also add dye. Trust me, you will find the leak!BennysPennys and Numb Thank this. -
