00 SE A/C Recharging

Where the heck is the low side a/c service port on a 00 SPI focus? I found the high side one by the radiator, but don't see the low side one.

low-pressure receiver is located on the drier unit, and the drier is located inside of the right fender liner

The right front fender requires removal in order to access A/C service ports.

i dont think it matters how long a thread has been dead for. someone might benefit from it. once you stop learning, you limit yourself. what will it matter once we're gone from this Earth? God Bless you.

And what would they learn from your post??????? I know I learned the "proper" term was Accumulator. I DON'T CARE WHAT ITS CALLED THATS NOT EVEN WHAT I ASKED ABOUT IF YOU READ THE QUESTION I WAS JUST LOOKING FOR THE SERVICE PORT!!! I SUPPOSE THAT HAS A "PROPER" NAME TOO!!!

[nose-gobblin]

they both could be right depending on what sytem the focus has either TEV Or FOT so stop shitting on eachother, FOT has accumulator and TEV has a reciver dirver. i think the focus is a fot dont know for sure tho

Hey! How do I get the front fender off?

Sorry I just haven't been able to figure out how to remove the fender

I took the inner fender liner off and got to it that way. Take the screws out that are around the wheel well and peel it back and you'll see the accumulator.
