DESCRIPTION
The front A/C expansion valve (Figure 1) controls the amount of refrigerant entering the front A/C evaporator. The front A/C expansion valve is of a thermostatic expansion valve (TXV) design and consists of an aluminum H-valve type body with an integral thermal sensor. The front A/C expansion valve is located in the engine compartment at the dash panel, between the A/C refrigerant lines and the A/C evaporator.
On RG models, the evaporator temperature sensor is installed on the top of the front A/C expansion valve.
