For the benefit of 944Hybrids users there are two search functions available for you to use.
The purpose of this sticky is to explain the "Advanced Search" function because it is much more powerful and is the best choice when researching information.

What year model car is it that you are working on?
The red circle looks to be a vacuum actuated solenoid for one of the control doors.
The lines are you ac lines , the large one is the suction line and the smaller one is the pressure, but I need to know what car we are working on to get you all the info you need.

Those are lines for the AC unit. The expansion valve is in the black blower box in the background of this picture. You need to totally disassemble it to get to the valve. Good luck!!

Where are these lines located? Are they under dash?
My 88 has bulkhead ac fittings co located with the vacuum line connections.

Late models (85.5 up) do not have these fittings, the firewall ones are what we have to deal with. All I did was adapt the suction side, by brazing a crimp to rubber hose fitting. I used the high pressure as is.

Fitting

Here's what the fitting I used looks like. It's a bead lock crimp fitting on one side, the other side brazes to the A/C line.

Leak

That's where the evaporator is, get a UV leak detector kit (I got mine for $50 on Amazon, covers A/C, coolant, oil, etc) and go hunting. Good luck!
