A/C Compressor Regulator Valve -N280-, EMOVING AND INSTALLING, AND REPLACING: Notes
Certain malfunctions at the A/C Compressor Regulator Valve -N280- (for example, a stuck valve or a short circuit in the coil) can lead to a complaint regarding the A/C compressor (A/C system is not cooling, the evaporator ices over, etc.). If the cause is with the A/C Compressor Regulator Valve -N280- (and not on the A/C compressor itself), the A/C compressor can be serviced by replacing the A/C Compressor Regulator Valve -N280- -C and D-.
The A/C Compressor Regulator Valve -N280- -C and D- is not available as a replacement part for all A/C compressors. If the A/C Compressor Regulator Valve -N280- is not available as an individual A/C compressor part, then the entire A/C compressor must be replaced. Refer to the Parts Information.
The A/C Compressor Regulator Valve -N280- is available in different versions and settings. Refer to the Parts Information. On the A/C compressor -A- (shown is an A/C compressor manufactured by "Denso") the connector for the vehicle wiring harness connection is attached with a short wiring harness to the A/C Compressor Regulator Valve -N280- -C-.On the A/C compressor -B- (shown is an A/C compressor manufactured by "Sanden") the connector for the vehicle wiring harness connection is mounted directly on the A/C Compressor Regulator Valve -N280- -C-.The removal and installation of the A/C Compressor Regulator Valve -N280- -C and D- on other A/C compressors (other type and manufacturer) is basically the same and only slightly deviates from the procedure described below.
If the A/C Compressor Regulator Valve A/C Compressor Regulator Valve -N280- malfunction was found to be caused by dirt, shavings or abraded A/C compressor material after the removal of the A/C Compressor Regulator Valve -N280-, lean the refrigerant circuit and replace the A/C compressor.
