basically they inspect the rest of the system for leakage by UV light if they charged it with UV dyed r134a refrigerant. If no other leaks are found they will blame the evaporator (a know weakness on the 850 and 70 series cars). The typical price for repair is $1500 due to the labor to remove and replace the dash assy.
