Hope you got it, didn't want you to think I forgot you.

Seems like the time to do a vacuum check. I have a feeling you'll not hold vacuum well. Next step would be to get a can of 134 with UV dye in it, and shoot it into the system and see what creeps out.
I'm doing just such a test on my other car right now. You can get a little UV flashlight on ebay for under $10, works good.

Yes, I read your PM yesterday and sent you a response. I've obviously found the connection now. Thanks for your help.

I know it won't hold a vacuum right now because the pressure switch is bad. It's my understanding that I now need to change the parts then pull a vacuum on the system. I should hold the vacuum for 20 minutes or so then charge the system if it's OK.

How does that sound?
