Compressor Clutch Coil Install (V5 - Conventional Mount)

TOOLS REQUIRED
^ J8433-1 Puller Bar
^ J 8433-3 Forcing Screw
^ J 33024 Clutch Coil Installer
^ J 34992 Compressor Holding Fixture




1. Place the clutch coil assembly on the front head with the terminals positioned at the marked location.
2. Place the J 33024 over the internal opening of the clutch coil housing.
3. Align the J 33024 with the compressor front head.
4. Center the J8433-1 on the countersunk center hole of the J 33024.
5. Install the through bolts and the washers of the J 34992 through the slots in the J 8433-1.
6. Thread the through bolts into the J 33025 in order to achieve full fixture thickness.

IMPORTANT: Ensure that the clutch coil and the J 33024 stay in-line during the installation.

7. Turn the J 8433-3 of the J 8433-1 in order to force the clutch coil onto the head.




8. With the compressor still mounted to the J 34992 and the coil seated on the front head, stake the front head using a drift punch with a diameter of 3.175 mm (0.125 in).




9. Stake the front head at 3 places 120 degrees apart in order to ensure that the clutch coil remains in position.
10. Ensure that the stake size is only one half of the area of the punch tip and only 0.28-0.35 mm (0.010-0.015 in) in depth.




11. With the compressor mounted to the J 34992, position the rotor and bearing assembly on the front head.
12. Position the J 33017 and the J 33023-A directly over the inner race of the bearing.
13. Position the J8433-1 on the J 33023-A.
14. Assemble the two through bolts and the washers of the J34992 through the slots of the J8433-1.
15. Thread the two through bolts into the J 34992. Ensure that the thread of the through bolts engages the full thickness of the J 34992.
16. Tighten the J8433-3 in the J8433-1 in order to force the pulley rotor and bearing assembly onto the front head of the compressor.
17. If the J 33O17 slips off direct, in-line contact with inner face of the bearing, use the following steps:
17.1. Loosen the J8433-3.
17.2. Realign the J 33O17 and the J 33023-A in order to ensure that the installer clears the front head.




18. Install the rotor and bearing assembly retainer ring using the J6083.
19. Install the clutch plate and hub assembly.
