• Improper refrigerant metering at the evaporator
• A/C performance loss after system service
• Restricted refrigerant flow in the HVAC circuit
• Service replacement for worn flow-control components

Installation Notes and Tips

Replace the expansion valve during A/C service when the system is opened or contaminated. Verify the vehicle application by year, make, and model before installation. Proper evacuation, leak checking, and recharge procedures are required after service.
