Default 2009 Ram 3500 air con issues

Hi guys new to your forum, thanks for the ad.

My air con has issues, last summer it gassed off, figured out the clutch fan had quit so changed out fan and had system recharged. This year it’s not really blowing cold and had a warning code come up with the low side of the system.

So what should I next look at? Compressor appears OK. Could it be the inline sensor on the cooling line??

Any pointers would be very helpful

If you are getting low pressure codes, you have a leak somewhere. Need to find, and fix it.

My 13 Ram 2500 was loosing Freon out the pressure relief valve because my condenser was plugged up. You need to have the high and low side pressures checked. On mine they weren’t showing the high side being over pressured because the pressure was building up before the condenser. This would cause my system to blow off 1/2lb of refrigerant.
