Have the refrigerant discharged by an air conditioning technician. Remove the grille. If equipped with air conditioning, remove the condenser cooling fan. Disconnect the inlet and outlet fittings. On 1997 and earlier models, disconnect the refrigerant line on the left side by unbolting this flange; to detach the left end of the condenser, remove the left mounting bolt. On1998 and later models, disconnect the compressor discharge line from the condenser by removing this bolt. The other refrigerant line is welded to the bottom left corner of the condenser; disconnect it from the receiver-drier. The left-side fitting is at the receiver/drier. Cap the open fittings immediately to keep moisture and dirt out of the system. Remove and discard all old O-rings. The O-rings must NOT be reused, or the system will leak. On 1997 and earlier models, remove the two bolts through the radiator support, and the hood latch and its support bracket. The bottom of the condenser is mounted in rubber "doughnuts" on the body, and the top of the condenser is "captured" by the radiator core support. To remove the condenser once the lines and fasteners are off, pull the condenser straight up until the bottom is out of its rubber mounts. Then swing the bottom of the condenser forward until it clears the body and can be dropped down. When the condenser top is free of the radiator support, pull it up and out of the vehicle. On 1998 and later models, remove the hood latch and the vertical support, then remove the left and right condenser mounting bolts. Then tilt the upper edge of the condenser forward and lift the condenser assembly out of the vehicle. Inspect the rubber insulators that position and cushion the lower edge of the condenser. If they're cracked, torn, or deteriorated, replace them. When installing the condenser, make sure that the condenser locator pins are fully inserted into the insulator cushions. Using new O-rings, reconnect the refrigerant lines. If a new condenser has been installed, add about 1.4 to 1.7 ounces of new refrigerant oil. Installation is otherwise the reverse of removal. Have the system evacuated, charged, and leak tested by the shop that discharged it.
