The refrigerant lines between the compressor/consenser and the evaporator run on top of the right wheel well. They are silver metal. One is large and the other is small.
If the system is charged properly, the small one should be warm/hot and the large one should be cold and wet. If this is the case, you have a problem with the mixing flap.
If the small pipe is warm/hot and the large one is warm/very slightly cool, then you are low on refrigerant and have another leak somewhere.
Hope this helps
