●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).

7Compressor
–Compressor:
The compressor is not activated when the exterior temperature is less than 0˚; it is used to compress the refrigerant
fluid into gas. The pressure can reach up to 28 bar.

Diagnostic - Fault finding chart62B
ALP 11 Unpleasant odours in the passenger compartment
NOTESOnly consult this customer complaint after a complete check with the diagnostic
tool.
Check that the cabin filter is not blocked or damaged
(see MR 411 Mechanical, 61A, Heating, Cabin filter:
Removal - refitting).
Replace it if necessary.
Is the fault still present?
YES
Check that the condensate (water from the evaporator)
drain ring is not obstructed (beneath the body).
Repair if necessary.
Is the fault still present?
YES
Check the sealing of the heating unit in relation to the
engine compartment:
- Foam seal on the heater matrix coolant pipes fitted and
in good condition.
- Rubber seal on the radiator tank fitted and in good
condition (seal under the bonnet separating the engine
compartment from the windscreen aperture).
- Drain valve on the radiator tank fitted and in good
condition.
Repair if necessary.
Is the fault still present?
YES
Remove the passenger compartment filter to apply air
conditioning system cleaner using an extension piece on
the evaporator. Spray the entire contents of the aerosol.
Leave the product to work for 15 minutes.
