disassembly. Make note of these items.
. 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 HFC-'134a (R-134a) to avoid leakage.
. Install the expansion valve capillary tube with
the capillary tube in contact with the outlet line
directly, and wrap it with electricaltape.
. Reinstall the evaporator temperature sensor to
its original location.
. Make sure that there is no air leakage.
ELECTRICAL TAPEReplace.Make sure there is no foreign matter stuck between
