Mopar PAG ND-12 Compressor Oil p/n 68224150AA • R-1234yf vehicles require new compressor oils • DO NOT use R134a PAG oil in R-1234yf systems as it lacks the acid reducer required for R-1234yf systems • Denso Compressors use PAG ND- 12 oil which is backwards compatible with some R134a systems (Replaces Denso ND8 oil) • Delphi R-1234yf Compressors use p/n 68232939AA (PSD-1) Oil Typical Refrigerant Oil Capacities

CAUTION: Be certain to adjust the refrigerant system oil level when replacing an A/C compressor. Failure to properly drain and measure the refrigerant oil from the A/C compressor can prevent the A/C system from operating as designed and cause serious compressor damage. Same Compressor Oil Drain Procedure as other Chrysler Vehicles • Drain all of the refrigerant oil from the old A/C compressor • Drain all of the refrigerant oil from the new A/C compressor • Refill the new A/C compressor with the same amount of refrigerant oil drained out of the old compressor • Use only clean refrigerant oil of the type specified for the A/C compressor in the vehicle Denso 7SBH17C R-1234yf Compressor

Integral Control Solenoid to reduce or increase the stroke of the pistons by adjusting the angle of the swashplate Denso 7SBH17C R-1234yf Compressor

• A/C Clutch Relay in PDC controlled by the PCM • Control Solenoid is controlled by the HVAC Module • HVAC Module calculates compressor displacement based on A/C load & demand • Monitored inputs include Vehicle Speed, High side pressure, Engine RPM, Evap temp, In Car temp, Accelerator position, Ambient temp, Humidity & A/C request. • HVAC module sends a 12 volt PWM signal to the Control Solenoid to increase or decrease refrigerant flow • Controls the angle of the swashplate • Regulates the pressure exerted on the rear of the pistons. Increased pressure reduces the length of the stroke • With low A/C demand, swashplate is adjusted to nearly a zero degree angle to reduce drag & improve MPG Denso 7SBH17C R-1234yf Compressor

Evaporator fins A/C evaporator tubes

New high efficiency Tapping block & O-ring seals evaporators must meet SAE J2842 R-1234yf Evaporator Label

Tech must Dispose of See service Cautions be certified properly procedures

R-1234yf evaporators must comply with the new J2842 SAE design and certification safety standard. This new safety standard addresses the flammability risk associated with R-1234yf refrigerant, high pressures, and possible poisoning in the event of a release of refrigerant in the passenger compartment. J2842 guidelines state that a faulty evaporator cannot be replaced with a used evaporator from another vehicle or from a salvage yard. New evaporators must meet J2842 standards and label requirements. Cabin Air Filter

Cabin Air Filters are now standard on most vehicles Replace every 2 years or 20,000 miles R-1234yf Expansion Valve

Recalibrated for the thermodynamic properties of R-1234yf R-1234yf Expansion Valve

• Thermostatic expansion valve (TXV) design • Aluminum H-valve type body, with integral thermal sensor • Similar test procedure to Chrysler R134a Systems • See Service Info for specific operating conditions & test procedure • Freeze the A/C expansion valve control head for 30 seconds using liquid CO² • Suction pressure should drop by at least 69 kPa (10 psi) • Allow expansion valve control head to thaw. Suction pressure should stabilize at 207 kPa to H-Valve 345 kPa (30 psi to 50 psi) R-1234yf Condenser & Receiver Drier

Receiver A/C Lines Condenser Drier

• Tapping blocks for A/C refrigerant lines • Integral Receiver Drier • Condenser & Receiver Drier are not serviced separately & currently replaced as an assembly Active Grille Shutters (AGS)

The AGS system is controlled by the powertrain control module (PCM) over a dedicated network LIN bus. When the ambient air and engine coolant temperatures are below a specified threshold, airflow across the radiator is not required. When airflow across the radiator is not required and vehicle speeds reach a calibrated threshold, the PCM will command the shutter vanes to close. Integrated IHX Assembly
