Ugh... and the plot thickens lol

So hooked up the gauges again this afternoon and it was about 95 degrees in the garage the low side was at about 40 and the high side was just pass 150. From all I've seen that's right where it should be unless the LS is just a beast of a different nature. Wrong time of year to have cooling...

I dont remember what it was right off hand. But what would cause it not to kick on to high even with the AC off? The temperature sensor? Yet no codes are being thrown. Where would the sensor be for the high pressure side?

Well it finally cooled off enough in the AZ to get outside and replace the compressor and the dryer. Got it to vacuum down to 28 according to my gauges and it held there. Filled it up with 28 oz of 134a and blows cold now... but only when driving, it blows cool when idling. I'm really thinking...

Good idea... thanks

Well we will see what happens just ordered the replacement compressor and picked up another new dryer. My thoughts on not being able to achieve the vacuum is the bad rebuilt compressor or I small leak somewhere else in the system (need to get the leak tester out before I take the compressor out...

I only added 24oz since the system was completely empty. It was evacuated down to about 27 inches of vacuum and left on the pump for about an hour. I do know that the ambient temperature was according to WTForcast "Omg. It's so hot. Who the f@#k even needs clothes today" . I will need to check...

So I just replaced the compressor on my 2006 LS. Now when I go to charge it the clutch engages and it starts and it starts working but the fan doesn't kick into high. Would that just be a relay or something else? The fan does kick into high when the engine temp gets hot enough. Any feed back...

So its been a while since Ive posted but now I need some help. On my 2006 LS I was in the process of removing the degas bottle and when I went to remove the nut that held the driver side wiper arm on not only did the nut come off but part of the stud came off also. So my question is can you...

Still cant nail it down... It looks like I will have to take it to my buddy who is a mechanic and have him diagnose it. UGH!

Ouch that sucks... I will start with the reservoir since the fluid is really black.

I looked around and could not find my answer so Im asking the masses. So the story goes yesterday Im driving home from work and the LS is running fine, steering great. This morning I got in it to leave for would and as I back out of the driveway it felt like I had absolutely little to no...

The coffee must of freaked out the system some how. When I came home from work the DATC was still lit up I also heard the electric water pump still running. So I disconnected the battery and reconnected it and everything seems back to normal. But the damn radio needs to be set up again. UGH!

Im fearing that it is more. Its the only lights on in the car when the rest of the car goes dark. I can also hear the electric water pump still running.

Maybe someone can shed some light on this... I was involved today in an accident where I tapped the car in front of me. It was under 5 miles an hour I think. No air bags were deployed and the car seems to run just fine and I dont see any cosmetic damage . But now Im not able to use my climate...

Not a big fan of Accel. Does MSD make coils for the LS?

Nailed it! A little bit of dielectric grease on coil number two and the LS is back in business... Looks like I will be buying new coils after reading all of the threads about misfires and everything. So any oppressions on it coils other then Motorcraft?

Just grabbed a better scan tool from a friend and it s all pointing to bank 2 for the problem. I no am only getting P0174 and a miss fire cylinder 2 so I think I know where its coming from. Lets hope!

Well that's good to know. By the time this is all done with I might be having to replace the coils. I hope not.

Alrighty here I go with my LS starting to have problems. For starters I have a 2006 LS and after doing a bevy of repairs to it in the last year I finally rebuilt my front end yesterday. With that out of the way I thought I was in the clear for problems until the drive home. On the way home the...
