Thank you for reporting back on the results of your project. Congratulations on completing it.

I had the same issue of a disconnected electrical connector when I changed out my rear shocks. My Tech 2 lead me directly to the source of the issue.

Great you got work done and handles great.

Be aware, the a/c system has a leak and now with a full charge the system has more pressure and will leak again, but how quick, I have no idea. The system is designed to not run low on refrigerant unless it has a leak. If that slow and was not empty, I suspect a shrader vale that leaks slow under the caps or another seal on a connection(s).

Yeah. They added some dye to the system and advised I bring it back if it stops blowing cool again

That is good info. Might want to not wait that long for the check. Maybe drive a month and check. You can also look at any connections and at center front of a/c compressor for wet looking dirt. When it leaks, a/c oil comes out and will look wet and dirt under hood will cling there.
