Re: 2017 Chevrolet Silverado R1234YF

You might have a separate issue that's called "reheating," in which heated air (from the heater) is mixing with cooled air from the evaporator plenum. But if the compressor isn't running, that's the issue we'll have to address first. Have you checked the clutch gap as previously suggested...

Re: 2017 Chevrolet Silverado R1234YF

Hi Cusser, thanks for that. Yeah, I guess I left out that I was not a AC professional either. I wish I had done that first too.

I attempted to add freon today, but instead I found a leaking hose that goes from the cannister to the condenser. I replaced that as it had developed a hole rubbing on a metal hose for 312K...
