How to troubleshoot AC Issues

Just got back from the shop. They said that the AC switch had gone bad and that the high line's schrader valve (or valve that's like a schrader valve) looked like it was leaking too. There was only a few ounces of freon in the line. They replaced both and filled the system again and I have cold air! They asked me to schedule a time in a week to go back in and have them test the system again in case they missed any leaks.

My high line valve has a slow leak too. I have a new one here but will wait until it stops blowing cold air to install it since I'll lose all my refrigerant when I remove the old one. Good to hear yours is working again!

It hit 97 here today. Glad they got it working for you, and it wasn't too intensive like a compressor or something.
