Disconnect negative battery cable. Discharge the refrigerant from the system. Remove the shroud panel. Remove in the order indicated in the table (pictured below). Do NOT allow compressor oil to spill.

Install in the reverse order of removal. NOTE: When installing a new condenser, add a supplemental amount (approx. 50 ml )of ZXL 100PG compressor oil inlet the refrigerant cycle. Perform a refrigerant system performance test.
