Ford 3S4Z-19V703-AA Compressor Assembly

The accumulator/drier should be discharged at a service department or repair facility. Disconnect the negative battery cable and using a plastic clamp-type tool, disconnect the refrigerant line next to the accumulator/drier from the compressor. Raise the front of the vehicle and remove the right-hand front wheel. Unscrew the inner fender well liner and disconnect the refrigerant line from the accumulator/drier. Unbolt the accumulator/drier from the front suspension sub-frame and remove it. For 2008 and later models, remove the lower radiator splash shield and remove the accumulator/drier bolt. Install the accumulator/drier in the reverse order of removal.
