LEAK DETECTION TYPES

There are several A/C leak detection tools available.

NOTE: There are specific leak dye kits for the R-134a and R-1234yf A/C systems. Make sure you are using the right kit for the system you are working on.

 

REFRIGERANT GAS LEAK DETECTOR

A refrigerant leak detector can sense refrigerant gas leaking from the A/C system.

  • It is a good alternative if the vehicle cannot accept leak dye.
  • The system must be pressurized to use this type of leak detector.

NOTE:

  • Refer to the HondaeBay Tool and Equipment Program for the most current, approved tool.
  • Refer to the tool manufacturer’s information for correct usage.

 

ULTRASONIC LEAK DETECTOR

An ultrasonic leak detector listens for leaks in the A/C system.

  • It is a good alternative if the vehicle cannot accept leak dye.
  • The system must under vacuum to use this type of leak detector.

NOTE:

  • Refer to the HondaeBay Tool and Equipment Program for the most current, approved tool.

Refer to the tool manufacturer’s information for correct usage.

 

LEAK DYE

Dye is injected into the A/C system. System leaks are visible with an ultraviolet light.

NOTE:

  • Only the dyes mentioned in this bulletin from Tracer Products (Tracerline®) are approved for use in HondaeBay vehicles.

Other dyes contain solvents that may contaminate the system’s refrigerant oil, leading to component failure.

  • Adding excessive amounts of dye can lead to compressor damage and failure.
  • Leak dye TRPTP9811P12 has been replaced by TRPTP1108P12. Continue to use TRPTP9811P12 until your dealership stock runs out.
