Compressor And Magnetic Clutch: Installation

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2007 Toyota Tacoma. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. ADJUST COMPRESSOR OIL 
    1. When replacing the compressor and magnetic clutch with new ones, after gradually discharging the refrigerant gas from the service valve, drain the following volume of oil from new compressor and magnetic clutch before installation.

      Standard: (Oil capacity inside a new compressor and magnetic clutch: 150 + 15 cc (5.1 + 0.51 fl.oz.)) - (Remaining oil amount in the removed compressor and magnetic clutch) = (Oil amount to be removed when replacing the compressor) 

      NOTE:
      • When checking the compressor oil level, observe the precautions on the cooler removal/installation.
      • If a new compressor and magnetic clutch are installed without removing some oil remaining in the pipes of the vehicle, the oil amount becomes too large. This prevents heat exchange in the refrigerant cycle and causes refrigerant failure.
      • If the volume of oil remaining in the removed compressor and magnetic clutch is too small, check for oil leakage.
      • Be sure to use RL-897 for compressor oil.
  2. INSTALL COMPRESSOR AND MAGNETIC CLUTCH (for 2TR-FE) 
    1. Provisionally tighten the compressor and magnetic clutch with the 4 bolts and harness bracket.
      NOTE: The harness bracket stopper should be in contact with compressor case.
    2. Tighten the compressor and magnetic clutch with the 4 bolts.

      Torque: 21 N*m (214 kgf*cm, 16 ft.*lbf) 

      NOTE: Tighten the bolts in the sequence order shown in Fig 1 to install the compressor and magnetic clutch.
    3. Connect the connector.
