Overhaul
L Pull out the Ay'C thermostat sensor from the evapo-rator fins.
2. Remove the self-tapping screws and clamps fromthe housing.
3. Carefully separate the housings and remove theevaporator.
4. lf necessary, remove the expansion valve.
NOTE: When loosening the expansion valve nuts.use a second wrench to hold the expansion valve orevaporator pipe. Otherwise, they can be damaged.
Assemble in the reverse order of disassembly, and:
. feplace the O-rings with new ones at each fitting,and apply a thin coat of refrigerant oil (ND-OIL 8:P/N 38899 - PR7 - A01) before installing them.NOTE: Be sure to use the right O-rings for HFC-134a {R-134a) to avoid leakage.. install the expansion valve capillary tube withthe capillary tube in contact with the suction linedi.ectly, and wrap it with tape.. reinstall the Ay'C thermostat sensor to its originallocation.
