Is it ok for me to replace the A/C compressor in my car myself or do I need to go to a professional?

indicates excessive gas in system or failed compressor
have the gas checked by an accredited ac professional and if ok , replace the compressor

Sorry we don not have this type of information.

It takes a strut compressor tool and can be dangerous,it is best to let a certified tech do the work.Rate if this was helpful,thank you.

No. Either get a professional to do it or better yet buy a new refrigerator.

You might be ablr to find a relplacement part but if you go to the dealer for it I doubt they will sell it to you. And yes, special tools are required!

you need to get a professional to remove the gas and then you can replace it. then get it evacuated and regassed. it would probably pay to replace the dryer also if the compressor has failed.

do you mean freon? it should be R134a, and you can get a do it yourself kit

yes that is an ok price or try coast appliance if you are in the la area ok the relay is located on the left side of the compressor is conected on a 3 pin conector you can't miss it is mounted on the compressor it self

I have an idea that replacing the compressor on a unit like this is not an economical choice. I also have a hunch that these small compressor units are sealed and not really replaceable, (without spending a whole lot of $$$$)> To check this out, call a refrigereator repair place and get a cost estimate and to find out if it is even possible
