Compressor Clutch Coil: Service and Repair

Removal
1. Perform Steps 1 through 4 of "Clutch Rotor and/or Bearings" removal procedure. Mark clutch coil terminal location (1) on compressor front head.




2. Install J-33023-A puller pilot on front head of compressor. Also install J-8433-1 puller crossbar with J-33025 puller legs as shown.
3. Tighten J-8433-3 forcing screw against the puller pilot to remove the clutch coil (2).

Installation
1. Place the clutch coil assembly (1) on the front head with the terminals positioned at the "marked" location.
2. Place the J-33024 clutch coil installer over the internal opening of the clutch coil housing and align installer with the compressor front head.




3. Center the J-8433-1 puller crossbar in the counter-sunk center hole of the J-33024 clutch coil installer. Install the J-33026 through bolts and washers through the crossbar slots and thread them into the holding fixture J-33026 to full fixture thickness.
4. Turn the center forcing screw of J-8433-1 puller crossbar to force the clutch coil onto the front head. Be sure clutch coil and J-33024 installer stay "in-line" during installation.




5. When coil is fully seated on the front head, use a 1/8 in diameter drift punch (2) and stake the front head at three places 120 degrees apart, to ensure clutch coil (3) remains in position.




- Stake size should be only one-half the area of the punch tip and be only approximately 0.28-0.35 mm (0.010-0.015 in) deep.

6. Install rotor and bearing assembly and the clutch plate and hub assembly.
