Inspection

1.	Check the condenser fins for clogging and damage. If clogged, clean them with water, and blow them with compressed air. If bent, gently bend them using a screwdriver or pliers.

2.	Check the condenser connections for leakage, and repair or replace it, if required.

Replacement

Recover the refrigerant with a recovery / recycling / charging station.

•	If the POE oil of the system gets mixed with PAG oil, then dielectric breakdown due to decreased volumetric resistivity can occur and inoperative A/C compressor may result, A/C compressor may not work.

2.	Disconnect the negative (-) battery terminal.

3.	Remove the front bumper. (Refer to Body - "Front Bumper Cover")

4.	Loosen the mounting bolts, remove the radiator upper cover (A).
