How to remove and install the A/C Compressor?

The receiver-drier should be replaced whenever the compressor is replaced. Have the A/C system discharged. Disconnect the negative battery cable from the battery. Disconnect the compressor clutch electrical connector. Remove the drivebelt. Disconnect the refrigerant lines from the top rear of the compressor. Plug the open fittings to prevent entry of dirt and moisture. Unbolt the compressor from the mounting brackets and lift it out of the vehicle. If a new compressor is being installed, follow the directions with the compressor regarding the draining of excess oil prior to installation. The clutch may have to be transferred from the original to the new compressor. Installation is the reverse of removal. Replace all O-rings with new ones specifically made for A/C system use and lubricate them with refrigerant oil. Have the system evacuated, recharged and leak tested by the shop that discharged it.
