Cooler Bypass Valve Assembly: Disassembly

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Ford Pickup, 2004 Ford F550 Super Duty, 2004 Ford F450 Super Duty, 2004 Ford Excursion, and 2004 Ford Cab & Chassis. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE: The cooler bypass valve needs to be thoroughly cleaned and flushed out at this time.
  1. Remove and inspect the cooler line case fittings. If the cooler line case fittings are damaged install new cooler line case fittings.

  8. CAUTION: Make sure the CBV is in the solvent tank before switching on the solvent pump. Also make sure the CBV fitting is pointing downward so the solvent does not spray up out of the tank.

  9. Place the CBV into the solvent tank.
  10. CAUTION: The solvent pressure must be at least 344.75 kPa (50 psi) (minimum) to overcome the valve inside the CBV and let the solvent pass through it. Do not, however, exceed 620.55 kPa (90 psi) (maximum) solvent pressure.

  11. Regulate the solvent pressure as specified. Switch on the solvent pump allowing the solvent to circulate through the CBV for 5 minutes. During this time, cycle the solvent pump on and off to help dislodge contaminants.
  12. Disconnect the cleaner pressure line from the case converter-out fitting. Remove the 0.5-inch washer.

  13. Using 344.75-620.55 kPa (50-90 psi) of regulated compressed air, blow through the CBV until all solvent is removed.
  14. Remove the plug from the CBV converter-out-to-cooler inlet.
