Where is the ac compressor pressure side on 1999 Dodge Intrepid?

On a 1999 Dodge Intrepid, the A/C compressor's high-pressure (discharge) side is typically located on the opposite side of the compressor from the low-pressure (suction) side. There's no single universally described location; it depends on how the compressor is mounted within the engine bay.

To be certain:

* Look for the thicker hose: The high-pressure side uses a thicker hose and often has a significantly larger diameter than the low-pressure suction line. The high-pressure line will also often have a drier/accumulator attached to it, which is usually a cylindrical component near the firewall.

* Look for the fitting: The high-pressure fitting is usually larger.

* Consult a repair manual: A repair manual specific to your 1999 Dodge Intrepid will have diagrams clearly showing the A/C system components and their locations. This is the most reliable way to identify the high-pressure side.

Without a visual inspection or a repair manual, it's impossible to give a precise location. Be cautious when working on the A/C system, as it contains refrigerant under high pressure.
