AC Problem! Need help! :(

[Wjbrown831989]

Hey guys. So I had to take my 2015 Turbo Hatch in last week for an alignment and an ABS actuator replacement. I just got it back this Wednesday, and my gf and I were out running errands and all of a sudden the AC is getting hotter and hotter... I kinda felt like it was never really as cold as it should've been, however I wasn't sure since I have only had it for 6 months...

Now I noticed when I was inspecting the engine that I have no cap over what I believe to be the low pressure service port for the AC... I have been looking and looking and can't find a definitive answer as to wether or not this is even the port I'm thinking of, I even checked the manual and no mention of how to recharge the AC at all..

Can someone confirm that this is the low pressure service port?
Also I have read that not having the cap won't necessarily cause it to leak but debris can build up and cause a leak? IDK... I'm about to go buy some r134a from target (ACPro refrigerant)

The two tubes are different sizes. The smaller tube is the high-pressure line. The larger-diameter tube is the low-pressure line, which is the one you’re looking for.

Make sure your electric radiator cooling fan is working. I had a problem with my 2013 Sonic with the A/C going out because the fan fuse blew and the fan was not coming on, which caused the coolant temperature to increase to the point where the system simply shuts down the A/C. Once the car cooled off, the A/C worked again for a while. Fixing the fan was the solution.
