Evaporator
The evaporators are attached to the rear wall of the
compartments with screws, behind the compartment
duct assemblies. See Duct Assembly removal proce-
dures earlier in this section.
NOTE: Whenever servicing the sealed system, the
refrigerant valve assembly (which includes the filter-
drier) MUST
be replaced.
To remove the evaporator, first capture the refrigerant
from the sealed system, then (See Figure 6-37):
1. Extract evaporator mounting screws, then pull and
rotate evaporator so heat exchanger is accessible.
2. With a file, score a line around capillary tube, 1” or
less from evaporator inlet, then fatigue capillary
tube at this line until it separates.
3. With a tube-cutter, cut suction tube 1” or less from
evaporator outlet stub, then remove evaporator
from compartment.
NOTES:
• Do not sweat tubing apart. Doing so will induce
moisture into the sealed system.
• After capillary tube separates, check tubing for inter-
nal burrs. If burrs exist, repeat step 2 above.
