Hi. The line is a short one coming out of the condenser going to the evaporator. It's short and s shaped. It is below the relay which it doesn't have. It'a a small pin hole and hard to get at between the steel fins between the unit and the condenser. Not much room for tools. Ooh yeah - that sounds like a real PITA to fix. Best of luck with that! I am sure it will be possible just not easy.

Curious, Does anyone know how the metal glass leads are connected to the motor wiring inside the compressor? I.E. is it just soldered and could in theory pop off when being heated if you take too long?

I think it’s possible but not likely

I just use only enough heat to get it done and that’s it. That thought has crossed my mind too.

Look at the DR teardown threads and you will see the connectors in a pic somewhere. They are soldered on but I agree its unlikely for them to come lose from replacing the leads on the outside.

That’s an interesting question about the terminations on the glass terminals on the inside. Thought coldspaces would be the one to answer that sence he’s had them open.
