A/C doing weird things


Recommended Posts

2013 Edge Limited 2.0 Ecoboost, 134000 miles.

Has been losing freon for several months and bad smell from vents at start up. I've just been topping it up when it starts blowing warm.

I decided to repair it since wife is on my back. No leaks out front so figure its evaporator. I ordered the whole evap case from Ford along with a new condenser and compressor from Rock Auto. UAC Brand. After gutting the car to install everything, I pulled a vacuum on system and it held overnight. As I started to charge the system, the low side pressure only stayed static matching the high side pressure. As the pressure rose, the compressor engaged and was running. The pressures did not change though. Low side pressure just slowly rose to around 90 psi and stayed there. No freon was pulled into the system by compressor. The only thing I can think of is that I got a bad compressor.

Thoughts?
