Compressor
Replacement
lf the compressor is marginally operable. run the
engine at idie speed, and let the air conditioner
work for a few minutes. then shut the engine off.
Disconnect the negative cable from the battery.
Recover the refrigerant with a recovery/recycling/
charging station (see page 22-59).
Disconnect the condenser fan connector. Remove
the compressor clutch connector and the wire har-
ness clip from the condenser fan shroud, then dis-
connect the compressor clutch connector. Remove
the mounting bolts and the condenser fan shroud,
