Global Parts 3411342 A/C Expansion Valve

Global Parts 3411342 is an A/C expansion valve/orifice tube for vehicles that need precise refrigerant control at the evaporator. It slows refrigerant flow so the system can use cooling capacity more effectively, making it a direct-fit service part for select Nissan, Mazda, Honda, and INFINITI applications.

• OE-style A/C flow restrictor for evaporator refrigerant control
• Helps regulate refrigerant before it enters the evaporator
• Fits select 1991-2002 Nissan, Mazda, Honda, and INFINITI models
• Part number 3411342 for catalog and service lookup
• Cross-references DENSO Auto Parts 475-2033 for the same application

Common A/C Problems It Can Address

• Restricted or uneven refrigerant metering at the evaporator
• Poor cabin cooling performance after A/C service
• Incorrect refrigerant flow control in the HVAC circuit
• Service-related replacement on aging Nissan, Mazda, Honda, or INFINITI A/C systems

Installation Notes

Confirm the vehicle’s exact A/C configuration before ordering, especially on 1998-2000 Nissan Frontier models that note use with OE evaporator and externally equalized operation, and 1994 Nissan D21/Pickup applications with standard threads and screw-on fittings. Replace the expansion valve/orifice tube during A/C service when the system is opened, and verify seals, refrigerant charge, and system cleanliness before returning the vehicle to service.

Quality Assurance

Global Parts recommends replacing the expansion valve/orifice tube any time the A/C system is serviced to maintain proper refrigerant control and evaporator performance.
