Step-by-step guide on recharging / refilling AC air conditioner by yourself on Chevy Traverse SUV using a/c recharge kit. This video will apply to any Chevrolet Traverse, only difference will be the location of the low pressure a/c charging port.
To start you will need a/c recharge kit which usually comes with two or three cans of a/c refrigerant. A/c recharge hose can be reused as many times as you wish, so you will only have to buy new a/c freon cans for every new recharge.
Connect a/c refrigerant can to one side of the hose and connect other side of the hose to the low pressure charging port. Now pierce the a/c can by turning the knob on top of it all the way in. Start the vehicle, turn on the A/C and set fan speed to highest setting. Now start releasing the knob on the can to charge the a/c system. Make sure to keep monitoring the gauge on the a/c recharge hose. You have to be careful not to overcharge the system as it might damage the a/c compressor. Once you are done and happy with the results you can turn off the engine and disconnect the hose. If you need to add 1 more ac refrigerant can then just repeat the process from the beginning.
All this will work in case there is no major leaks in the a/c lines and a/c compressor is working properly. In case of a leak you will have to take the vehicle to a professional mechanical shop for diagnostics and possible repair.
In case of a small leak you can try using a/c leak stop which sometimes fixes and seals small leaks.
