2. Undo the bolt (2a) and disconnect the connector (2b) for the pipee from the condenser to the evaporator.
Seal the disconnected connectors, using suitable plugs, to prevent humidity and impurities from entering the system.
1. Working in the right front wheel arch, release the pipe from the condenser to the evaporator (1a) from the retainer (1b).
Lower the vehicle.1. Working the area of the compressor, release the fuel pipes (1a) and fuel vapour pipes (1b) from the retainers (1c). 2. Release the pipe from the condenser to the evaporator (2a) from the retainers (2b).
1. Undo the bolt (1a) and disconnect the connector (1b) from the expansion valve (1c). 2. Remove the pipe from the condenser to the evaporator.
1. If necessary, undo the linear pressure switch.
Refitting ( Removing ) Check that the pipe between the condenser and the evaporator is not damaged and there are no cracks which would affect the seal.
Replace the O-rings for the connectors. Only use green coloured seals, resistant to R134a refrigerant. Lubricate the thread of the connectors using anti-freeze.
1. If removed, tighten the linear pressure sensor in place.
