Component Name

Danger: Always perform the High Voltage Disabling procedure prior to servicing any High Voltage component or connection. Personal Protection Equipment (PPE) and proper procedures must be followed.

The High Voltage Disabling procedure will perform the following tasks:

   • Identify how to disable high voltage.
   • Identify how to test for the presence of high voltage.
   • Identify conditions under which high voltage is always present and personal protection equipment (PPE) and proper procedures must be followed.
Failure to follow the procedures exactly as written may result in serious injury or death.

Danger: This A/C system's high voltage A/C Compressor uses Polyolester (POE) refrigerant oil. Use of any refrigerant oil other than POE may result in compressor failure and/or loss of high voltage isolation which may result in serious danger or death. For applicable equipment please refer to TIS Newsletter/repair equipment information.

Preliminary Procedure

  1. Disable hybrid high voltage system. Refer to High Voltage Disabling and High Voltage Enabling .
  2. Recover the refrigerant. Refer to Refrigerant Recovery and Recharging : High Voltage Electric Compressor .
  3. Raise and support the vehicle. Refer to Lifting and Jacking the Vehicle .
  4. Remove the air conditioning compressor and evaporator hose from air conditioning compressor front. Refer to Air Conditioning Compressor and Evaporator Hose Replacement .
  5. Remove the exhaust manifold with catalytic converter. Refer to Exhaust Manifold with Catalytic Converter Replacement .
  6. Remove the air conditioning compressor front hose. Refer to Air Conditioning Compressor Front Hose Replacement .
  7. Disconnect the electrical connectors from the air conditioning and drive motor cooling compressor. Refer to High Voltage Connectors .
