Compressor Clutch: Service and Repair
A/C Compressor Clutch Replacement
REMOVAL
The refrigerant system can remain fully charged during compressor clutch, pulley, or coil replacement. Although the compressor assembly must be
removed from its mounting, the compressor clutch can be service with the compressor in the vehicle.
1. Disconnect and isolate the battery negative cable.
2. Raise and support the vehicle.
3. Remove the serpentine drive belt. Refer to: "Engine, Cooling and Exhaust : Drive Belts, Mounts, Brackets and Accessories : Drive Belts :
Service and Repair" See: Engine, Cooling and Exhaust/Engine/Drive Belts, Mounts, Brackets and Accessories/Drive Belt/Service and Repair
4. Disconnect the engine wire harness connector for the compressor clutch coil from the clutch coil pigtail wire connector on the top of the
compressor.
5. On models with this engine, remove all of the compressor mounting screws except the upper left (rear of the compressor) screw, which should only
be loosened. Allow the front (pulley end) of the compressor to tilt downward far enough to access the clutch for removal, then tighten the loosened
upper left compressor mounting screw.

removal.
