AC on 2002 stratus 4cyl dont work. compressor is not engaging. i believe it's low on freon, but i cant locate low pressure switch to short to add freon. please dont say it's on return line without saying WHERE. thanks

Answer
HI Bud

There is no low pressure switch.  This system has a high pressure trinary switch that has a lead coming from the BCM.  I would not play with that switch unless you want to buy a new computer for your car.  Add refrigerant and see what happens.  Let me know what your pressures are and I'll help.
