If you don't have a leak, why would the refrigerant be low? How did it get low if there wasn't a leak?

There are two ways. One is to use a refrigerant leak detector. They are not cheap. The second way is to inject dye into the system. A leak in the evaporator core can be difficult to detect with dye because you can't see the core to see the dye stain.

In my opinion it's cheaper to go to a pro and get it fixed right.
