It was not the freon. They think the compressor is the problem. Mechanic has worked on alot of the 500's and it has been the compressors.

I have the same issue with the speedometer on my 500, except mine only lights up from 70-120. Did you ever figure the issue out with yours? Any help would be much appreciated.
