Leaking AC low pressure value

[Aple996]

Today I was refilling my cars windshield wiper fluid and I thought I heard a hissing sound from the ac valves I went to open the low pressure valve cover and there was a hissing noise coming from the valve. Should I be worried. Thanks.

If it's leaking, you've gotta problem. Is this what's called a "troll"?

On a webpage it said it was depresurizing the system but is it thought the valves?

This is a simple fix.

Wow...

Have it sucked out. Replaced and recharged

It's no doubt leaking through the charging valve and sometimes changing the cap to one with an intact gasket will do. Caps are cheap and usually come in a kit

A leaking schrader valve can be replaced without losing the charge.

I have that tool and it sucks! It only fits one style of core and the core often gets stuck and breaks off in the line. So I end up sucking it out and doing it that way anyway

That could actually be quite frustrating. If it breaks inside while removing it, try a Torx drive to remove it. If you still cannot get it out, you will have to replace the entire line.

I have the ability to replace the whole charge port instead of replacing a line
