Compressor (For 1Kd-Ftv) -- Removal



1. REMOVE UPPER RADIATOR SUPPORT SEAL
  1. Remove the 13 clips and upper radiator support seal.



2. DISCONNECT CABLE FROM NEGATIVE BATTERY TERMINAL
NOTICE:
  1. After turning the ignition switch off, waiting time may be required before disconnecting the cable from the battery terminal. Therefore, make sure to read the disconnecting the cable from the battery terminal notice before proceeding with work. (LandCruiser RM000003YMD00TX.html)
  2. When disconnecting the cable, some systems need to be initialized after the cable is reconnected (LandCruiser RM000003YMF011X.html).


3. RECOVER REFRIGERANT FROM REFRIGERATION SYSTEM
  1. Start the engine.

  1. Operate the cooler compressor under the conditions shown below:

    Item
    Condition
    Engine Speed
    Idling
    Operating Time
    3 minutes or more
    A/C Switch Status
    On
    Blower Switch Status
    HI
    Set Temperature
    MAX COOL
    This causes most of the compressor oil from the various components of the A/C system to collect in the A/C compressor.
    NOTICE:
    It is not necessary to operate the cooler compressor if the A/C does not operate because of compressor lock, etc.
  1. Stop the engine.

  1. Recover the refrigerant from the A/C system using a refrigerant recovery unit.

    HINT:
    Use the refrigerant recovery unit in accordance with the manufacturer's instruction manual.


4. REMOVE NO. 1 ENGINE UNDER COVER SUB-ASSEMBLY
  1. Remove the 4 bolts and No. 1 engine under cover.



5. DRAIN ENGINE COOLANT
CAUTION:
Do not remove the radiator cap while the engine and radiator are still hot. Pressurized, hot engine coolant and steam may be released and cause serious burns.
  1. Loosen the radiator drain cock plug.

    HINT:
    Collect the coolant in a container and dispose of it according to the regulations in your area.
