CAUTION: Position the A/C clutch field coil so that the coil positioning tabs and the wire harness lead are oriented in the correct
direction. Failure to correctly position the field coil on the A/C compressor will result in field coil damage.
2. Align the field coil positioning tabs to the recessed area at the front of the A/C compressor and install the clutch field coil onto the compressor
using a two jaw puller (3), compressor field coil installer (Special Tool 9352 in Kit 9349) (4) and the compressor field coil installer spacer
(Special Tool 9353 in Kit 9349) (5).
3. Position the clutch field coil wire lead and connector (3) to the A/C compressor (4) and install the plastic retaining clip (1) and the screw (2) that
secures the wire lead to the compressor. Tighten the screw to 4 Nm (35 in. lbs.).
4. Align the pulley and bearing assembly (1) squarely onto the front of the A/C compressor (2).
NOTE: A distinct change of sound during the clutch pulley tapping process indicates that the pulley and bearing assembly has bottomed
out against the compressor housing.
5. Using clutch pulley installer (Special Tool 9355 in Kit 9349) (3) and a hammer (4), install the pulley and bearing assembly onto the front of the
A/C compressor. Tap the installer with a hammer until the pulley and bearing assembly has bottomed against the compressor housing.
