Condensers can be replaced at automotive 4S shops or other auto repair shops. There is no need to replace it with an original factory condenser. However, the fixed dimensions and heat exchange capacity of the replacement condenser parts should be basically consistent with the original factory parts. Function of automotive condensers: The condenser is a component of the refrigeration system and a type of heat exchanger. It can convert gas or vapor into liquid and quickly transfer the heat in the tubes to the air near the tubes. Characteristics of automotive 4S shops: Automotive 4S stores are invested and constructed by dealers according to the standards set by automobile manufacturers. They are automobile sales enterprises that integrate four functions: vehicle sales, spare parts, after-sales service, and information feedback.

How to Refill Automotive Refrigeration Oil?

Automotive refrigeration oil can be refilled using the following methods: 1. Refill through the compressor—start the compressor at idle speed, operate the control system at the coldest setting and highest fan speed for 20 to 30 minutes to allow the oil to return to the compressor. Then, turn off the engine, release the refrigerant, remove the compressor from the vehicle, and drain the old oil. Directly refill or top up with new oil. 2. Use a specialized vacuum tool to extract air from the air conditioning system, then utilize negative pressure to draw the refrigeration oil into the compressor through a yellow hose. The required amount of refrigeration oil varies by vehicle model. The exact refill quantity can be found on the compressor's nameplate or in the vehicle's user manual. Owners should simply follow the specified amount to add the refrigeration oil.

The Functions of the Front and Rear Oxygen Sensors

The functions of the front and rear oxygen sensors: 1. The front oxygen sensor detects the oxygen concentration in the engine exhaust and provides this information to the ECU in the form of an electrical signal. The ECU then uses the oxygen concentration data to perform closed-loop control of the fuel injection amount. 2. The rear oxygen sensor detects the oxygen concentration in the exhaust after it has been treated by the three-way catalytic converter. If the data detected by the front and rear oxygen sensors are the same, it indicates that the three-way catalytic converter has failed. In engines equipped with a three-way catalytic converter to reduce exhaust pollution, the oxygen sensor is an essential component. Oxygen sensor models include the AutoO2 series, CiTicel series, 4 series, 7 series, and MICROcel series.
