Low side and High side A/C charge specs needed for 2012 Leaf

[braebyrn]

My hood is missing the A/C charge label telling the capacity and low and high side pressures. If someone wouldn't mind looking that would be great! I know its HFC 134a at least.
Thanks

Anyone? Thanks

Even the amount of Ounces would really help! I have a refrigerant scale too.

I guess that's what I get for not having a A/C sticker on the underside of my hood. Anybody with a Leaf, can you go look on the underside of the hood for the Ounces for the A/C, Please.

THANK YOU!!!!!!!!

You are welcome.

The label also says "ND-OIL11 NON FLUORESCENT OIL". Since the compressor is hermetically sealed and operates at higher voltage than typical household air conditioners, the oil type is critical.

Edit: I forgot to note the above information is from my 2011, but I think the 2012's were the same air conditioning system.

My 2011 LEAF has the same information.
Label does not have pressures.

Well I can tell you with A/C systems, you will probably never see pressures on a sticker. The reason for that is Ambient Temperature, Barometric pressure, and even elevation can lead to different numbers being "normal". My leaf in Iowa would have different pressure numbers than a leaf in Texas as an example. There are average numbers for high/low pressures, but then again they are average. I've seen too many videos on A/C systems both home and auto and they both say the same thing. There is no "standard" high/low pressures.

As with any electric powered automotive AC system you need to be diligent to not contaminate the system with conventional AC oil. Even a small amount of oil can break down the insulation in the compressor motor and cause a failure.

Thank you all. The system is now operational and blows cold air. I stuck a thermometer gauge in the vent and it registered 36 degrees just sitting in park.
