5.2. Removal, check of a state and installation of a radiator
Removal
|
1. Disconnect a negative wire from the battery. |
2. On models with the coal adsorber established in a motive compartment perform the following procedures: a) Otboltite clamping level of fastening of the battery; b) Give two top bolts and the lower nut of fastening of an assembly bracket of a coal adsorber to the body panel; c) Disconnect from an adsorber and its electromagnetic valve hoses and an electrical wiring; d) Accurately shift assembly of an adsorber aside, having released space for removal of a radiator. |
|
3. Release collars and disconnect the top and lower hoses from a radiator. 4. At the corresponding complete set disconnect an electrical wiring from the thermosensitive sensor switch of the fan of the cooling system installed assembly on a radiator. |
5. Wring out two clamps located on the top corners of a radiator, then incline a radiator for the purpose of ensuring access to two hoses connected to the right bottom corner of assembly back. |
|
6. Release collars and disconnect the remained hoses. 7. Take a radiator from a motive compartment. |
|
Check of a state
|
1. If suspicion of violation of passability of a radiator became the reason of removal, it is necessary to make its obratnopotochny washing (address the Head Routine maintenance). By means of a soft brush (do not cut fingers about edges of plates) or compressed air (do not forget to put on goggles) clean gaps between radiator heat exchanger plates.
|
Remember that fragile plates of the heat exchanger of a radiator at careless handling can be easily damaged! |
2. In case of need at car repair shop it is possible to make "line" check of a radiator on existence of blocking of internal channels. 3. Repair of the radiator which lost tightness should be carried out only in the conditions of a specialized workshop. 4. In an extreme situation of leak of cooling liquid from a radiator it is possible to suspend by means of special sealant without extraction of a radiator from the car (see instructions for use of sealant). 5. Before sending a radiator to repair, disconnect from it all hoses and remove the thermosensitive sensor switch of the fan. 6. Check a condition of rubber pillows of support of a radiator. In case of need make replacement.

Installation
Installation is made upside-down. Pay attention to the next moments:
a) Track correctness of installation of rubber pillows of the lower support of a radiator;
b) Track correctness of gearing of uvulas of big hoses in grooves of reception branch pipes of a radiator;
c) In conclusion do not forget to make gas station of the cooling system (address the Head
Routine maintenance).
