What happens if you overfill AC compressor?
Having too much refrigerant in your AC can damage the compressor. This can happen because the excess refrigerant will likely collect inside the compressor and cause subcooling, wherein temperatures are below normal. Furthermore, the extra refrigerant can flood the compressor and damage its mechanical parts.
Will a new AC compressor affect the engine?
This AC compressor is in charge of pressuring the AC system and keeping the refrigerant flowing properly so that the entire system can function correctly, so the bad AC compressor does not affect the engine.

How can I troubleshoot my Newmar air conditioner?
Welcome to iRV2 and the Newmar Owner’s Forum. My assumption is the fan works and ambient temp air is coming through the vents. If this is true, see if you can determine if the compressor is cycling. The compressor is attached to the engine. You’ll need to see the A/C compressor. While looking at the compressor, have someone turn on the A/C.
Do you have to recharge the AC after changing the compressor?
And then, you must recharge the ac after changing the compressor to start blowing the cold air again. People usually hire a mechanic for this procedure. But you will be happy to know that you can also DIY the project without paying for the mechanic.
What to do if your dash air conditioner is not working?
Check the comressor to see if the clutch is engaging, if not, or it is going on and off quickly, check the freon level first. There is a low pressure sensor that will no let the clutch engage if the freon pressure is low. This is words of wisdom passed down by my father who had 30 years in the automotive industry.
