Compressor (Denso), Removing and Installing

Compressor With A/C Compressor Regulator Valve -N280-, Removing And Installing From Bracket


NOTE:
- The compressor can be removed without opening refrigerant lines.
- Do not discharge the A/C system, and do not disconnect refrigerant lines of compressor
- After removing, secure A/C compressor to longmember (i.e. with wire) Do not hang on refrigerant lines.
- Mark the running direction of the ribbed belt with a crayon or marker before removing. Reversing the direction of rotation of a run-in belt can destroy the belt.
- Different compressors are installed depending on engine and country variant (right or left side of engine, 6 cyl. engines).


Compressor (installed on right side of engine), removing and installing from bracket


NOTE:
- The compressor is installed e.g. on a 1.9 L Diesel engine (not for USA) installed on right hand side of the engine.







- Do not loosen refrigerant lines and clamps -D-.


- Remove noise insulation:
- Bring lock carrier into service- position:
- Release ribbed belt and remove.
- Remove screws -A- (25 Nm).


NOTE:
- Install one washer -B- on each bolt -A-.
- Before fastening the compressor, check that both bushings -C- in bracket or compressor are seated correctly.







- After fastening the compressor, check installation position of refrigerant lines -A-, lines must be engaged in bracket -B-.
- After fastening the compressor, check the refrigerant lines and brackets for enough distance to other components.


On left hand side on engine compressor, removing and installing from bracket


NOTE:
- E.g. the compressor is installed on the 2.0 L gas engine (left side of engine).
- Do not loosen refrigerant lines and pertaining clamp.
- The illustration shows the compressor on a 4 cyl. gas engine. On other engine variants the arrangement deviates only slightly from this illustration (e.g. different refrigerant lines).


- Remove noise insulation:
- Bring lock carrier into service position:
- Remove oil filter. Protect sealing surface from damage (only on vehicles with 6 cyl. gas engine):
- Release ribbed belt and remove.







- Remove bolts -A- (25 Nm).


NOTE:
- Install one washer -B- on each bolt -A-.
- Before fastening the compressor, check that both bushings -C- in bracket or compressor are seated correctly.







- After fastening the compressor, check installation position of refrigerant lines -A-, lines must be engaged in bracket -B-.
- After fastening the compressor, check the refrigerant lines and pertaining bracket as well and there is sufficient gap to other components, on vehicles with 6 cylinder engines make sure there is enough space between belt, bracket and belt pulley.
