A/C Compressor Replacement

If the A/C compressor is marginally operable, run the engine at idle speed, and let the air conditioning work for a few minutes, then shut the engine off.
Make sure you have the anti-theft code for the radio, then write down the frequencies for the radio's preset buttons.
Disconnect the negative cable from the battery.
Recover the refrigerant with a recovery/recycling/charging station.
Remove the alternator.
Remove the A/C condenser fan assembly.




Disconnect the A/C compressor clutch connector (A), remove the bolts, then disconnect the suction line (B) and the discharge line (C) from the A/C compressor. Plug or cap the lines immediately after disconnecting them to avoid moisture and dust contamination.




Remove the mounting bolts and the A/C compressor.
Install the A/C compressor in the reverse order of removal, and note these items:
Before installing the new A/C compressor, check for metal or other contamination in the line. Replace any contaminated parts.
If you're installing a new A/C compressor, you must calculate the amount of refrigerant oil to be removed from it.
Replace the O-rings with new ones at each fitting, and apply a thin coat of refrigerant oil before installing them. Be sure to use the correct O-rings for HFC-134a (R-134a) to avoid leakage.
Use refrigerant oil (KEIHIN SP-10) for HFC-134a KEIHIN spiral type A/C compressor only.
To avoid contamination, do not return the oil to the container once dispensed, and never mix it with other refrigerant oils.
Immediately after using the oil, reinstall the cap on the container, and seal it to avoid moisture absorption.
Do not spill the refrigerant oil on the vehicle; it may damage the paint. If the refrigerant oil contacts the paint, wash it off immediately.
Charge the system.
Do the engine control module (ECM) idle learn procedure.
Enter the anti-theft code for the radio, then enter the customer's radio station presets.

Recover the refrigerant with a recovery/recycling/charging station.




Remove the bolt, then disconnect the suction line (A) and the receiver line (B) from the evaporator core.
Remove the blower unit.




Remove the self-tapping screws and the expansion valve cover.




Carefully pull out the evaporator core (A) without bending the pipes.
Remove the evaporator expansion valve (B) from the evaporator core.
Install the core in the reverse order of removal, and note these items:
If you're installing a new evaporator core, add refrigerant oil (KEIHIN SP-10).
Replace the O-rings with new ones at each fitting, and apply a thin coat of refrigerant oil before installing them. Be sure to use the correct O-rings for HFC-134a (R-134a) to avoid leakage.
Immediately after using the oil, reinstall the cap on the container, and seal it to avoid moisture absorption.
Do not spill the refrigerant oil on the vehicle; it may damage the paint. If the refrigerant oil contacts the paint, wash it off immediately
Charge the system.
