Both gages should read the same.
Check the reading with the
appropriate column in Table 5-2.
If the system is even partially
charged, the pressure should be approximately equal to that shown
in the table for the appropriate ambient temperature.
If the
pressure is considerably less than shown in the table, the system
does not contain enough refrigerant to continue the pressure check;
proceed directly to leak testing.
(See para 5-14.)

(1) If discharge and suction pressures are at, or near, the
same value, a pressure equalizer solenoid valve L2 malfunction, or
an internal compressor failure is indicated.
