To recharge the AC in your 2003 Ford Focus, you should:
1. Take it to a qualified mechanic or AC specialist. They have the proper equipment (vacuum pump, gauges, refrigerant charging machine) and knowledge to diagnose the problem and recharge the system correctly. They can also identify leaks, which are a common reason for low refrigerant.
2. Diagnose the problem first. Low refrigerant isn't always the issue. A leak, compressor failure, condenser problem, or other component malfunction could be the root cause. A professional will diagnose the issue before simply adding refrigerant.
Do not attempt to recharge the AC yourself unless you have the proper training, equipment, and understanding of the risks involved. Improper handling of refrigerants can be dangerous and lead to costly repairs.
