Default AC Compressor Test

Anyone know if there is a way to test your AC Compressor? I think mine might be dying, not sure. I get cool air, not cold....and I have froen, no leaks, and just replaced the condensor. The AC Fan works, just cant get cold air. So, I want to see if it is working properly and didnt want to take it somewhere.

You need to get a set of gauges and see what is going on. Take it to an A/C specialist. Also how do you know there are no leaks?

When you changed the condensor a few weeks ago, did u evacuate the system with a vacuum pump? and recharge making sure no air or moisture entered the system? If not,

Thats a typical condition from a low charge. Chances are you have a leak. I am ASE and honda factory certified. Pm for help.
