Condenser
12.Condenser
A: REMOVAL
1) Using the refrigerant recovery system, discharge
refrigerant.
2) Disconnect the ground cable from battery.
3) Disconnect the pressure hose and pipe from
condenser.
4) Remove the radiator bracket (A).
5) Remove the two bolts. While lifting the condens-
er, pull it out through the space between radiator
and radiator panel.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage the radiator fins and
condenser fins. If a damaged fin is found, repair
it using a thin screwdriver.
If the condenser is replaced, add appropriate
amount of compressor oil to the compressor.
B: INSTALLATION
1) Install in the reverse order of removal.
CAUTION:
Replace the O-rings on hoses or pipes with new
ones, and then apply compressor oil. Confirm
that lower guide of condenser has been fitted
into holes on radiator panel.
2) Charge refrigerant.
Tightening torque:
Refer to COMPONENT in General Descrip-
tion.
tion.>
C: INSPECTION
1) Check that no dust or insects are found on the
condenser fins. Air-blow or flush fins with water as
needed.
2) Check that no oil leaks from condenser. If a fail-
ure is found, replace the condenser with a new one.
