Installation Procedure

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Pontiac Sunfire and 2003 Chevrolet Cavalier. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Install a new O-ring seal. Refer to O-Ring Replacement .
  2. NOTE: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.
  3. Install the service fitting to the compressor hose assembly. See Figure.

    Tighten 

    Tighten the service port to 12 N.m (106 lb in).

  4. Evacuate and recharge the refrigerant system. Refer to Refrigerant Recovery and Recharging .
  5. Leak test the fittings of the component using the J 39400-A.
