Installation [02/2014 - 11/2016]: Procedure

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
  1. INSPECT COMPRESSOR OIL 
    1. When replacing the compressor with motor assembly with a new one, gradually discharge the inert gas from the service valve, and drain the following amount of oil from the new compressor with motor assembly before installation.

      Standard

      (Oil capacity inside the new compressor with motor assembly: 205 to 220 cc (6.9 to 7.4 fl. oz)) - (Remaining oil amount in the removed compressor with motor assembly) = (Oil amount to be removed from the new compressor)

      NOTE:
      • If a new compressor with motor assembly is installed without removing some oil, there will be too much oil in the system due to the oil remaining in the pipes of the vehicle. Excessive oil in the system prevents heat exchange in the refrigeration cycle and causes ineffective cooling.
      • If the amount of oil remaining in the old compressor with motor assembly is too small, check the air conditioning system for oil leaks.
      • Be sure to use ND-OIL 11 or equivalent compressor oil. If any compressor oil other than ND-OIL 11 is used, compressor with motor assembly insulation performance may decrease, resulting in leakage of electric power.
  2. INSTALL COMPRESSOR WITH MOTOR ASSEMBLY 
    1. Install the compressor with motor assembly with the 3 bolts.

      Torque: 24.5 N*m (250 kgf*cm, 18 ft.*lbf) 

    2. Install the bolt.
    3. Connect the connector (B).

      *a Connector (A)
      *b Connector (B)
      *c Green-colored Lock
    4. Connect the connector (A) and slide the green-colored lock as shown in the illustration to lock it securely.
      WARNING:

      Make sure to wear insulating gloves.

      NOTE:

      Make sure that the connector is connected securely.

  3. CONNECT SUCTION HOSE SUB-ASSEMBLY 
    1. Remove the vinyl tape from the suction hose sub-assembly.
    2. Sufficiently apply compressor oil to a new O-ring and the fitting surface of the compressor with motor assembly.

      Compressor Oil

      ND-OIL 11 or equivalent

    3. Install the O-ring to the suction hose sub-assembly.
      NOTE:
      • Keep the O-ring and O-ring fitting surface free of foreign matter.
      • Do not use any compressor oil other than ND-OIL 11 or equivalent. If any compressor oil other than ND-OIL 11 or equivalent is used, compressor motor insulation performance may decrease, resulting in leakage of electric power.
    4. Install the suction hose sub-assembly to the compressor with motor assembly with the bolt.

      Torque: 9.8 N*m (100 kgf*cm, 87 in.*lbf) 

  4. CONNECT DISCHARGE HOSE SUB-ASSEMBLY 
    1. Remove the vinyl tape from the discharge hose sub-assembly.
    2. Sufficiently apply compressor oil to a new O-ring and the fitting surface of the compressor with motor assembly.

      Compressor Oil

      ND-OIL 11 or equivalent

    3. Install the O-ring to the discharge hose sub-assembly.
      NOTE:
      • Keep the O-ring and O-ring fitting surface free of foreign matter.
      • Do not use any compressor oil other than ND-OIL 11 or equivalent. If any compressor oil other than ND-OIL 11 or equivalent is used, compressor motor insulation performance may decrease, resulting in leakage of electric power.
    4. Install the discharge hose sub-assembly to the compressor with motor assembly with the 2 bolts.

      Torque: 9.8 N*m (100 kgf*cm, 87 in.*lbf) 

  5. INSTALL SERVICE PLUG GRIP 

    Refer to INSTALLATION [02/2014 - ]

  6. CHARGE AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM WITH REFRIGERANT 

    See step  2

  7. WARM UP COMPRESSOR 

    See step  3

  8. INSPECT FOR REFRIGERANT LEAK 

    See step  4

  9. INSTALL NO. 1 ENGINE UNDER COVER 

    Refer to PROCEDURE - Step 78 , or refer to PROCEDURE - Step 77
