How to Install an A/C Expansion Valve on Jeep Wrangler?

Ensure that the refrigerant oil level is set before installing the A/C expansion valve, to avoid malfunction in the A/C system and compressor damage. Use the Refrigerant Oil Capacities chart to work out how much oil is required when changing many A/C parts. It is crucial to put in new O-ring seals and gaskets on the refrigeration line every time you disconnect it to keep leaks away. First, take away any tape or unplugged refrigerant lines, evaporator tube fittings and expansion valve ports. Before installing, lubricate any new O-ring seals with clean refrigerant oil and fit them on the refrigerant line and evaporator tube fittings using only O-rings and refrigerant oil that match the vehicle's A/C compressor and R-134a system. Then, fit the A/C expansion valve onto the end of the evaporator tube tapping block and hold it in place with two bolts, tighten each to 11 Nm (97 in. lbs.). Join the A/C liquid line and A/C suction line to the A/C expansion valve and secure all in place using a 70 in.-lb. nut. Place the negative battery cable back, get rid of the refrigerant, check and set the level of refrigerant oil and charge the refrigerant system as you need to.
