• Q: How to replace the A/C Condenser on 2009 Cadillac SRX?

  A: Scrub the air conditioning condenser to be removed and then recover the refrigerant. Then un-mount the Power Steering Cooler bolts and then lift and hold the vehicle. Second, pull off the retainers for the front air deflector and the front air deflector, after which you will pull out the lower air baffle push pin retainers. Unbolt the condenser upper bracket bolts, the condenser lower mounting bolts, and the discharge line bolt prior to removing the discharge line from condenser and discarding the o-ring. Disconnect the condenser tubes from the condenser similar to the evaporator tube, and remove the condenser tube bolt and discard the o-ring. Move the Power Steering Cooler to the side in order to remove condenser when reinstalling power steering lines the steering lines would be hooked up to the pump on the motor using a few clamps to hold the lines in place. In the situation of a new condenser, transfer the specified volume of pag oil to it straight away. Replace the new condenser and reposition the Power Steering Cooler. Install a new o-ring to the condenser tube, attach it to the condenser and tighten the tube bolt of the condenser to 9 nm (80 lb in). To the discharge line, fit a new o-ring, attach it to the condenser, and the discharge line bolt should be tightened with 9 nm (80 lb in). Install the lower mounting bolt of the condenser and tighten it to 5.4 nm (48 lb in) and reinstall the top bracket bolts of the condenser by following the same measure. Mount the lower air baffle push pin retainers, the front air deflector, and the front air deflector retainers. Lower the vehicle and perform the installation of the Power Steering Cooler mounting bolts. Eventually, evacuate and recharge the a/c system, conduct a leak test on the fittings by use of the j 39400-a halogen leak detector.
