Take appropriate safety precautions
1. Wear eye protection (safety glasses).
2. Do not smoke next to the vehicle when performing repairs.
3. Work in a well-ventilated area.
4. Wear skin protection (such as gloves and closed toe shoes).
5. Recover refrigerant before making repairs.
To confirm that this part fits your vehicle, enter your vehicle\'s Year, Make, Model, Trim and Engine in the Compatibility Table.
Attention Please:
*Be sure to clean the air conditioning system before installation, otherwise it will cause compression broken.
*Please make sure the installation site is clean. Or, it will cause operating obstruction, even make the temperature of the compressor very high, and the belt on the clutch may melt.
*Because the item is with oil when sent to you, so there is no need to add oil when you use it the first time. But you need to add the refrigerant , please add some according to the corresponding increase standard in your car, don\'t need to fill up. There may be noise if the refrigerant is added too much.
*All of our compressors come complete with the clutch and pulley unless otherwise advertised.
*Professional installation is highly recommended.
Installation:
1.Remove compressor(Remove the A/C belt from the A/C compressor pulley. May involve loosening the belt tensioner (if equipped).
2.receiver drier or accumulator, orifice tube or expansion valve.
3.Disconnect the negative battery cable.
4.Remove the bolt that secures refrigerant lines to the A/C compressor. Inspect A/C lines for any contamination such as metal or excessive dirt inside of them. If you find any contamination the system will need to be cleaned.Flush the condenser and evaporator using NON-OIL BASED A/C flush. On expansion valve systems. The valve must be removed before the evaporator can be flushed. Flushed condensers from outlet to inlet and evaporators from inlet to outlet.
5.Because the item is with oil when sent to you, so there is no need to add oil when you use it the first time.
6.But you need to add the refrigerant , please add some according to the corresponding increase standard in your car, don\'t need to fill up. There may be noise if the refrigerant is added too much.
7.Install new receiver drier or accumulator and new orifice tube or expansion valve.
8.Evacuate the A/C system for a minimum of one hour.
9.After evacuation install half the refrigerant charge and let the system set for 1 minute. This will allow the refrigerant to pick up oil and spread more evenly throughout the system.
10.Turn on the A/C system with the engine running and check to see if cold air is now coming out of the air duct.
11.If the A/C system is functioning ,you may find that your electric radiator fan and compressor clutch will be cycling off and on depending on the outside air temperature.
Should you have any questions regarding the installation of your new or remanufactured compressor, please do not hesitate to contact us.
FQA:
How does the AC compressor work?
The serpentine belt or drive belt at the front of the engine drives the A/C compressor, thus allowing the compressor to pump
refrigerant through the system. Some vehicles use a compressor with a clutch that engages the compressor electronically when
the A/C button is turned on, and some vehicle\'s compressors turn any time the engine is running. The high pressure created is
necessary for the air conditioning system to function and without it the air conditioner would blow just warmer than ambient
temperature inside the vehicle. The compressor also uses check valves that allow refrigerant to flow in one direction.
What are the symptoms related to a bad AC compressor?
The compressor is necessary for the air conditioner to operate, and when it fails, the most common symptom is warm air from the
vents. Since the compressor places additional load on the engine, engine speed (RPM) will drop slightly if the A/C button is
turned on, but if the compressor is not functioning properly, the engine idle speed may not drop. This may indicate that the
compressor clutch is not functioning, or internal compressor failure has occurred. When the check valves fail, the high and low
pressure sides of the refrigerant system may being to equalize in pressure, and the air conditioner may blow warmer air. Finally, a
squealing or grinding noise may be heard from the compressor in the event of mechanical failure.
