I'm back again with my next issue. The a/c hasn't worked since I got this flex. It's at the shop and diagnosed the pressure switch is bad. The tech said it can't be removed without pulling the front end off. I'm assuming just the bumper. I haven't looked at it yet but is this true? Any one have the removal diagram available?

Is this the a/c transducer, or high pressure cutoff switch?  It is mounted in the Compressor to Condenser Discharge Line very close to the condenser, the splash shields need to be removed but not the bumper.  I assume all years are the same, but I'd have to check. This is from a 2014 Flex
