A/C Compressor Relief Valve Replacement

  1. Recover the refrigerant with a recovery/recycling/ charging station (see REFRIGERANT RECOVERY ).
  2. Remove the relief valve cover (A), the relief valve (B), and the O-ring (C). Plug the opening to keep foreign matter from entering the system and the A/C compressor oil from running out.
