Ford FOTZ-19712-A Condenser Assembly

Disconnect the refrigerant lines from the condenser. On 1996 and earlier models, this requires a spring-lock coupling tool similar to that used for fuel injection lines. Remove the metal clips from the connection, then use the tool to release the coupling. For 1997 and later models, a different approach may be necessary, often involving a specialized refrigerant line disconnect tool designed for the specific fittings used in those years. Always ensure the system is properly evacuated before attempting to disconnect any refrigerant lines to prevent exposure to refrigerants and ensure safety.
