James the high pressure valve should be under the plastic cover on the
driver's side in the opening of the rear hatch.  Remove the cover and it is
right there.  Your affliction sounds like low charge to me.  Check the
pressures and add R-134a and you should be back on line.  You may want to
take the van somewhere for a leak check or add some of that red leak
detecting dye in with your oil so you can see  where the leak is and fix it.
