Description And Operation: Description
The A/C condenser (1) is located in the front of the engine compartment behind the grille. The A/C condenser is a heat exchanger that allows the high-pressure refrigerant gas being discharged by the A/C compressor to give up its heat to the air passing over the condenser fins, which causes the refrigerant to cool and change to a liquid state.
The A/C receiver/drier housing (2), secured to the condenser, is not serviced separately from the A/C condenser, however, the internal filter/drier element can be replaced without replacing the condenser.
