INSTALLATION
1. Clean the coil mounting surface on the front head to remove any dirt or corrosion.

CAUTION: Do not use air tools. The A/C clutch field coil can be easily damaged.

2. With the A/C compressor in a vertical position (nose up), place the A/C clutch field coil in position on the A/C compressor front head. Make sure the A/C clutch field coil electrical connector is positioned correctly as noted during removal.
3. Place the Coil Pressing Tool T89P-19623-EH with Field Coil Replacer T91P-19623-CH in position over the compressor nose and to the inner radius of the A/C clutch field coil.
4. Position 2-Jaw Puller D80L-1002-L or equivalent on the A/C compressor and coil pressing tool. The jaws of the puller should be firmly engaged with the rear side of the A/C compressor front mounts. The forcing screw must be piloted on the center mark of the pressing tool.
5. Tighten the forcing screw with a hand wrench until the A/C clutch field coil is pressed on the compressor front head. Check to make sure that the A/C clutch field coil bottoms against the head at all points around the coil outer diameter.
