Connecting A/C Manifold Gauge Set

  1. Turn both manifold gauge set valves all the way to the right to close the high and low-pressure hoses to the manifold center hose. A Rotunda Adapter D81L-19703-A, Motorcraft Tool YT-354 or 355 or equivalent must be used to connect the manifold gauge set or charging station to the high-pressure service gauge port valve.
  1. Remove the A/C charging valve caps (19D702) from the high and low-pressure service gauge port valves.
  1. If the manifold gauge set or charging station hoses do not have valve depressing pins in them, install Fitting Adapters T71P-19703-S and R (which have pins) on the low and high-pressure hoses.
  1. Connect the high and low-pressure hose adapters to the respective high and low-pressure service gauge port valves. The adapter shown must be used on the high-pressure gauge port valve.
