High Subcooling is an indication that more than the designed amount of refrigerant is “backing up” or “packed” into the condenser. This can be caused by overcharge, restriction (such as a contaminated line drier or kinked liquid line), or an undersized or failing closed metering device. Keep in mind that the subcooling can often read in range on a system that still has issues. This is often because the previous tech simply “set the charge” by subcooling without fully testing all aspects of the equipment, such as airflow. — Bryan P.S. – If you want to learn more about subcooling, check out this training video.
