Subject:
Replacement of A/C Hose
Application:
1992-93 9000
When replacing the A/C hose assembly for the A/C compressor, you will notice that the connection to the expansion valve has been redesigned.
There are two major differences:
^
A hole for the coding pin on the expansion valve has not been provided in the new connection plate.
^
The three mounting holes are replaced by one mounting hole on the connection plate.
These changes will require the removal of the coding pin from the expansion valve before fitting the new hose. You then must use just one central
mounting bolt to secure it.
The old and new part numbers are listed below. For additional information, see M90-93 9000, Ed. 16, Grid 5-H20 spare parts microfiche.
