## 🔌 Function

Compresses and circulates the refrigerant so the air conditioning system can move heat out of the cabin or space.

## ⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

-   Rattle, knock or squeal from the compressor when the clutch engages
-   Oily refrigerant residue around the shaft seal or the ports
-   Clutch slipping, dragging or not engaging at all
-   Belt squealing or the compressor seizing the drive

## 🛠️ Service Notes

-   The refrigerant circuit must be recovered and recharged by someone qualified and equipped to handle refrigerant, not vented
-   Establish why the old compressor failed before fitting a new one, as debris from a failed unit will circulate and take the replacement with it
-   Compressor 78537075 is a separate listing at 8.243 kg, so confirm which compressor the engine carries before ordering
