AC issue

Pulled a vacuum and it was holding at -30. No leaks. Pressure low side is 45. Compressor runs. It’s not cooling. I replaced the high and low switches.

Insufficient information provided.

It would help if you identified what you're working on as well as the state of charge and both gauge readings.

Yes it would

2004 f150 5.4 used a friends vac pump and gauges. And used his gauges to install Freon. So I don’t have access to the high side now.

Not enough info to take any diag steps. MUST have both high and low side readings as stated previously.

Proper tools better response. I get it. I don’t have access to a set of gauges, now unfortunately. Probably ought to pick up a set. Cheaper than a service call.
