Troubleshooting
Dye not visible under inspection
Ensure you are using a genuine UV lamp and inspect in a darkened environment; check that the A/C system has been running long enough for the dye to circulate.
Difficulty injecting dye into system
Verify the R134a adapter is fully seated on the low-side service port and ensure the system pressure is not exceeding the applicator's capability.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up the product, attach the reusable R134a adapter provided in the kit to the low-pressure service port of the vehicle's A/C system. Ensure the engine is running and the A/C is set to its maximum cooling setting before introducing the dye. Once the dye is injected, disconnect the applicator and allow the system to circulate for 10 to 15 minutes. For maintenance, keep the bottle tightly sealed in a cool, dark environment to prevent degradation. Always verify that your UV inspection lamp is fully charged and functioning correctly before starting your inspection, as the dye is not visible to the naked eye under standard lighting conditions.
