ALL CHEVROLET DEALERS
Comments have been received that the A/C compressor hose fractures at the threaded fitting for the compressor delay switch, (see Figure 1B-35 for
switch location).
The probable cause for this condition is that the compressor delay switch was installed at the assembly plant with a torque specification that was too
high.
When replacing a new compressor delay switch or installing the existing switch on a new hose assembly, the following torque specification should be
used.
