So the other day I was getting the battery out to replace it and I was loosening the bolts on the hold down strap. I was trying to get that bolt that was on the right side body of the vehicle underneath the strap (weird place for a bolt.) Anyways my wrench slipped and it hit something, a line, I’m not too sure what. It happened too quick. This neon green liquid started squirting out.
It doesn’t look like any of the fluids were drained because of it. Though, those pipes/wires are so small. It stopped squirting out that stuff but I really need to know what it was and whether or not I need to have someone fix it.
I’m including links to pictures to give an idea of what I’m talking about in case I’m not making sense..

Thats the Freon used in the A/c system. Make sure that connector is not loose or broken or the metal lines dont have a hole in them.

If enough oozed out you may need to recharge the system as long as the hole the squirted the freon out in the first place is closed
