What is the pulley diameter and number of grooves?

How do I confirm if this part fits my vehicle?

You should use the 'make model tool' provided on the product page or contact customer support with your vehicle's specific details (make, model, year, engine size).

Is this a new or remanufactured compressor?

The product description indicates 'OE-EQUIVALENT' quality, suggesting it is a new part designed to match original specifications, not a remanufactured unit.

What does 'Manufacturer Restriction: DENSO-EQUIVALENT' mean?

This means the compressor is designed as a direct replacement for original equipment compressors manufactured by DENSO.

What is 'EASY FIT'?

'EASY FIT' is NRF's designation for components designed with features that simplify the installation process.

Troubleshooting

Air conditioning not blowing cold after installation

Verify the A/C system was properly evacuated, leak-tested, and recharged with the correct amount of R 134a refrigerant and PAG 46 oil. Ensure the compressor clutch is engaging.

Compressor making unusual noises

Check belt tension and condition. Ensure correct oil quantity and type were used. If noise persists, the compressor may be faulty or have an internal issue.

Compressor clutch not engaging

Check electrical connections to the compressor clutch. Verify sufficient refrigerant pressure in the system (low pressure can prevent engagement). Inspect fuse and relay for the A/C system.

Leaks detected from compressor seals

Ensure all fittings were torqued correctly during installation. If leaks persist, the seal ring may be damaged or the compressor may require replacement.

Installation:

Care:
