2. Undo the bolt (2a) and disconnect the connector (2b) for the pipe from the condenser to the evaporator.
Seal the connectors that have been disconnected using suitable plugs to prevent dampness 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 in 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 from the condenser to the evaporator is not damaged and that there are no cracks that could compromise the seal.
Replace the O rings for the connectors. Only use green coloured seals that are resistant to R134a coolant. Lubricate the connector threads using anti-freeze.
1. If removed, tighten the linear pressure switch in place.
