I adjusted the pressostat sensor and now the compressor stays on.

With the refill hose connected, when the compressor kicks on the reading stays at about 25psi. When the compressor kicks off or I unplug the sensor the reading goes very high into the red.

The R-132 is not going into the system, the can stays full. The R-132 can and the receiver/drier do not get cold as did on
another automobile that we fill with R-132 yesterday.

The air coming out of the A/C is so so cool, not cold.

I unscrewed the adjustment screw only a small bit and this helps keep the compressor on.

When I unattach the R-132 can from the receiver/drier I don't get a puff of pressure like I expected when I pull it off the receiver/drier.

Please help its getting hot in here.
Joseph
