Same deal with question 4 I’ll take a listen tomorrow ECON light is not on.

Not accepting any refrigerant to me indicates the system is full or overcharged. But yeah, definitely need a bit more information.

FWIW, I did once have it where I had all my refrigerant, sensor was good (had changed it couple years beforehand), and no ECON light. It did turn out to be the compressor, which I bought a replacement kit from discountacparts.com (included brand new Denso compressor, oil, o-rings, orifice tube, and accumulator. I didn't see much in the way of debris when I cleaned it, but replacing it definitely did the trick.
