A/C Compressor Regulator Valve -N280-
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 10 other vehicles, including the 2017 Audi S3, 2017 Audi RS 3, 2017 Audi A3 Quattro, 2017 Audi A3, and 2016 Audi S3. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
Switching pressures, removing and installing switches as well as switch arrangement and version. Refer to REFRIGERANT CIRCUIT (vehicle-specific repair information).
- The regulator valve is installed in the A/C compressor. It is activated for example by the A/C Control Module -J301-, the Front A/C Display Control Head -E87- or the Climatronic Control Module -J255- (depending on the vehicle, possibly via the data Bus and an additional control module). Use the Vehicle Diagnostic Tester in the A/C system "Guided Fault Finding"
function. Refer to the
REFRIGERANT CIRCUIT
(vehicle-specific repair information).
- Pressure on the low pressure side is influenced via the regulator valve and thus regulates the temperature in the evaporator.
NOTE:
The A/C Compressor Regulator Valve -N280- is a component of the A/C compressor and cannot be replaced separately on all A/C compressors. Refer to the Parts Information and A/C Compressor Regulator Valve -N280-, REMOVING AND INSTALLING AND REPLACING .
