Hello fellow techs i have a 2007 thermo king sb200 and i would like to know how do
i preform a three way valve test .this unit needs refrigerant about every two weeks. There is no visible leaks, i checked for leaks with a leak detector and also put nitrogen in the system and still can not find any leaks. I preform a low side pump to 25 vac and suction side rises above 0 on
gauges within seconds.
Can anyone help thanks

Hey thanks i will test the throttling valve.later today do i need to have a compound gauge or can i check it with my manifold gauge. Also i replaced the shaft seal already, throttling valve gasket, and the discharge manifold gaskets and it's still been loosing refrigerant
