• Q: How to replace the evaporator core on 2003 Chevrolet Malibu?

  A: Begin the Evaporator core replacement by obtaining the necessary equipment which is the halogen leak detector (J 39400-A). Start by removing both the Heater Core then proceed with removing the Heater Core case shroud. The removal process begins by taking out both the screw and Evaporator core bracket to gain access to the Evaporator core for its later removal. Use the appropriate amount of refrigerant oil when installing a new Evaporator core as a prerequisite for continuation of installation. Place and fasten the new Evaporator core through installation of the Evaporator core bracket and screws until they reach 1 n.m (9 lb in). Install the Heater Core case shroud and its screws onto their corresponding positions before tightening them to 1 n.m (9 lb in). The Heater Core installation requires a leak test on its fittings through the usage of the halogen leak detector model j 39400-a. Upon completion tighten the component fittings to 1 n.m (9 lb in).
