NOTE: Seal the openings of the disconnected parts of the cooler unit refrigerant liquid pipe E and the condenser assy using vinyl tape to prevent moisture and foreign matter from entering.




8. REMOVE RADIATOR SUPPORT SUB-ASSY UPPER RH
a. Remove the 4 bolts and then the radiator support sub-assy upper RH.




9. REMOVE RADIATOR SUPPORT SUB-ASSY UPPER LH
a. Remove the 4 bolts and then the radiator support sub-assy upper LH.




10. REMOVE W/RECEIVER CONDENSER ASSY
a. Remove the 2 angles.

11. REMOVE COOLER DRYER
a. Using the straight hexagon wrench 14 mm (0.55 in.), remove the cap from the modulator.




b. Remove the O-ring from the cap.




c. Using pliers, remove the cooler dryer.




12. INSTALL COOLER DRYER
a. Using pliers, install the cooler dryer to the modulator.
