Detailed Description
TYC 97203 is an A/C evaporator core engineered for the front HVAC assembly in 2011-2015 Kia Sorento applications. The tube and fin construction supports refrigerant heat exchange inside the evaporator case, while the block-style inlet and outlet fittings align with the specified connection design. This part number, 97203, is also a useful reference when verifying replacement needs against the vehicle’s original evaporator core dimensions and connection style. This part cross-references Kia (e.g., 97139 1U010) and UAC (e.g., EV 939927PFXC) for the same application.
What It Helps Address
- Loss of cabin cooling performance
- Refrigerant flow issues at the evaporator core
- Leaks at the evaporator assembly
- Restricted heat transfer inside the HVAC system
- Replacement needs for a damaged front evaporator core
Installation Notes and Tips
Verify the core height, length, thickness, inlet diameter, outlet diameter, and block fitting design before installation. Confirm the vehicle is a 2011-2015 Kia Sorento with front evaporator application, and compare the original part number 97203 against the removed component when ordering. Proper HVAC service procedures should be followed during replacement, including system evacuation and recharge after the evaporator core is installed.
Quality Assurance
TYC supplies replacement HVAC components with application-specific dimensions and fitment data to support accurate part selection for the Kia Sorento platform.
