Evaporator Core: Service and Repair
Front A/C Evaporator - Installation
INSTALLATION
CAUTION: Be certain to adjust the refrigerant oil level when servicing the A/C refrigerant system. Failure to properly adjust the refrigerant
oil level will prevent the A/C system from operating as designed and can cause serious A/C compressor damage.
NOTE: When replacing multiple A/C system components, refer to the Refrigerant Oil Capacities chart to determine how much oil should be added to
the refrigerant system.
NOTE: If only the A/C evaporator is being replaced, add 60 milliliters (2 fluid ounces) of refrigerant oil to the refrigerant system. Use only refrigerant
oil of the type recommended for the A/C compressor in the vehicle.
NOTE: Replacement of the refrigerant line O-ring seals is required anytime an A/C expansion valve is removed. Failure to replace the rubber O-ring
seals may result in a refrigerant system leak.
1. Install the A/C evaporator (4) into the lower half of the HVAC housing (3).
2. Install the condensate drain (2) onto the lower half of the HVAC housing. Make sure that the condensate drain is clean and unrestricted.
3. Install the screws (1) that secure the condensate drain to the lower half of the HVAC housing. Tighten the screws to 2 Nm (17 in. lbs.).
4. Install the HVAC housing and instrument panel as an assembly.
5. If the A/C evaporator is being replaced, add 60 milliliters (2 fluid ounces) of refrigerant oil to the refrigerant system. When replacing multiple
A/C system components, refer to the Refrigerant Oil Capacities chart to determine how much oil should be added to the refrigerant system. Use
only refrigerant oil of the type recommended for the A/C compressor in the vehicle.
