Liquid 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 liquid line is the refrigerant line that goes from the A/C condenser to the A/C expansion valve. See Fig 1 and Fig 2. The receiver/drier and the high side service port are integral to the liquid line.
CAUTION:
Use only O-ring seals specified for the vehicle. Failure to use correct O-ring seal will cause the refrigerant system connection to leak.
The liquid line has no serviceable parts except the rubber O-ring seals, the service port valve core and it's protective cap. The O-ring seals used on the connections are made from a special type of rubber not affected by R-134a refrigerant. The O-ring seals must be replaced whenever the liquid line is removed and installed.
If the liquid line is found to be leaking or is damaged, it must be replaced.
