A/C Discharge Line: Description
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Dodge Stratus and 2005 Chrysler Sebring. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The A/C discharge line is the refrigerant line that carries refrigerant from the A/C compressor to the A/C condenser. See Fig 1.
The A/C discharge line includes the fitting for the A/C pressure transducer (Refer to HEATING & AIR CONDITIONING/CONTROLS/A/C PRESSURE TRANSDUCER - DESCRIPTION) .
CAUTION:
Use only seals specified for the vehicle. Failure to use the correct seals will cause the refrigerant system connections to leak.
The A/C discharge line has no serviceable parts except for the O-ring seals. The seals used on the connections are made from a special type of rubber not affected by R-134a refrigerant. The seals must be replaced whenever the A/C discharge line is removed and installed.
If the A/C discharge line is found to be leaking or is damaged, it must be replaced.
