6Condenser and radiator
7Compressor
●COLD LOOP COMPONENTS:
–Compressor: This is located at the bottom on the left-hand side, next to the radiator in the engine compartment.
–Condenser: This is located between the radiator and the cooling fan assembly.
–Dehydrator reservoir: This is located on the left-hand side of the condenser outlet.
–Heating and air conditioning unit: This is located under the dashboard.
–Thermostatic expansion valve: This is located to the left of the heating and air conditioning unit on the
bulkhead.
–Evaporator: This is located to the right of the thermostatic expansion valve in the heating and air conditioning
unit.
–High pressure pipe: this pipe connects the compressor, condenser, dehydrator reservoir, and expansion valve
inlet in series (it is located in the engine compartment on the left-hand side).
–Low pressure pipe: this pipe connects the expansion valve, buffering capacity, evaporator, and compressor
inlet in series (it is located in the engine compartment on the left-hand side).

Fault finding - Role of components62C
–High and low pressure pipes:
●The High Pressure and Low Pressure pipes are composed of rigid aluminium pipes and flexible pipes that
enable engine-related movements to be absorbed.
●Two filler valves (High Pressure and Low Pressure) can be accessed in order to fill (or drain) the refrigerant loop.
●The connections must be checked in the event of a refrigerant fluid leak.

●HEATING COMPONENTS
–Heater matrix:
The external air entering the heating and air conditioning device (HVAC) is heated by the heater matrix.

MANUAL AIR CONDITIONING
Fault finding - Role of components62C
–Passenger compartment heating resistors (depending on the equipment level):
The passenger compartment heating resistors (RCH) are electrical heating devices in the air conditioning unit. This
system is an additional heating system which operates when the engine is cold (when starting).
ACTUATORS
–Air distribution flap:
This flap enables the air flowing into the passenger compartment to be directed.
–Air mixing flap:
This flap mixes the air in order to meet the temperature requirements of the occupants.
–Recirculation flap:
This flap prevents the entry of exterior air. In this case, the passenger compartment is isolated from the exterior and
air is blown in the passenger compartment in a closed circuit.
These three flaps are controlled by a cable.
●OTHERS
–Passenger compartment blower unit:
The passenger compartment blower unit is controlled by the Resistive Blower Dimmer Module (MVPR).

(fault reading and configuration checks).
Application conditions: engine stopped, ignition on, AIR CONDITIONING
SWITCHED OFF (Passenger compartment blower unit switched off and air
conditioning compressor not activated).
Note:
Read the parameters when the vehicle is cold (in the morning) to check the conformity
of the temperature parameters (without thermometer). The temperatures should be
approximately equal (interior, exterior and engine coolant).
