• Q: How to replace the A/C Condenser in the HVAC system on 2007 Chevrolet Colorado?

  A: The necessary tools for condenser replacement in the hvac system begin with the halogen leak detector (J39400-A). Start by taking away the Radiator while also recovering refrigerant from the hvac system. Starting with removal of the receiver dryer followed by the condenser inlet hose bolt and its accompanying inlet hose. After removing the outlet hose bolt first and outlet hose next take off the condenser from its mounts connecting to the Radiator. Refrigerant oil installation follows before new condenser placement enables mounting of the unit onto the Radiator during component migration from the previous condenser. Mount the condenser on the Radiator beforeinstalling its retaining bolts at a torque of 28 n.m (21 lb ft). Secure the receiver dryer onto position first before installing the condenser inlet hose with its bolt and tighten the connection to 20 n.m (15 lb ft). Install the condenser outlet hose with its corresponding bolt followed by bolt tightening to 20 n.m (15 lb ft). The last steps require you to replace the Radiator and perform system evacuations and recharges before running the halogen leak detector (J39400-A) on all fittings.
