Q: How do you remove and install the A/C Compressor on Honda CR-V?
A: When replacing entire components, additional refrigerant oil should be added equal to the amount that is removed with the component being replaced. Be sure to read the can before adding any oil to the system to ensure compatibility with the R-134a system. The receiver-drier should be replaced whenever the compressor is replaced. Begin by having the air conditioning system refrigerant discharged and recovered by an air conditioning technician. Disconnect the cable from the negative battery terminal. Set the parking brake, block the rear wheels, and raise the front of the vehicle, supporting it securely on jackstands, then remove the under-vehicle splash shield. Remove the engine cooling fans. On 1.8L models and 2015 and later CR-V models, remove the alternator. Disconnect the compressor clutch wiring harness and the refrigerant lines from the compressor, plugging the open fittings to prevent entry of dirt and moisture. Remove the compressor mounting bolts. For all models except 2015 and later CR-V models, carefully guide the compressor through the opening below the engine compartment; for 2015 and later CR-V models, remove the compressor from the top. The clutch may need to be transferred from the old compressor to the new unit. Since the oil separator is equipped inside the AJC compressor on these models, oil drainage is unnecessary at the time of compressor replacement when installing a new compressor supplied by Honda. Follow any specific instructions that come with a replacement compressor. Installation is the reverse of removal, using new O-rings where the line fittings attach to the compressor. Have the system evacuated, recharged, and leak tested by an air conditioning technician, and then reconnect the battery.
