4. |
Remove the expansion valve cover (A). |
5. |
Remove the bolts (A) and the expansion valve (B) from the evaporator core.
Plug or cap the lines immediately after disconnecting them to avoid moisture and dust contamination.
Tightening torque :
7.8 ~ 11.7 N.m ( 0.8 ~ 1.2 kgf.m, 5.7 ~ 8.6 Ib-ft)
|
|
6. |
Disconnect the inlet (C) and outlet (D) heater hoses from the heater unit.
Engine coolant will run out when the hoses are disconnected;
drain it into a clean drip pan. Be sure not to let coolant spill on

Installation is the reverse order of removal, and note these items :
A. |
If you're installing a new evaporator, add refrigerant oil (ND-OIL8). |
B. |
Replace the O-rings with new ones at each fitting, and apply a
thin coat of refrigerant oil before installing them. Be sure to use the
right O-rings for R-134a to avoid leakage. |
C. |
Immediately after using the oil, replace the cap on the container, and seal it to avoid moisture absorption. |
D. |
Do not spill the refrigerant oil on the vehicle ; it may
damage the paint ; if the refrigerant oil contacts the paint, wash it
off immediately |
E. |
Apply sealant to the grommets. |
F. |
Make sure that there is no air leakage. |
