Do you have access to AC pressure gauges? If while the AC is on the low side goes to zero and the high side goes very high , the expansion valve is sticking.
yes I have gauges and the expansion valve is new last year, dryer and it ran fine felt it drop suddenly that's why I thought mono valve but as another member said it has no mono valve but a vacuum valve I will look into it but for now I am working on our front end back hoe, that has to come first.
