How to Service and Repair the A/C Accumulator on Ford Flex?

The A/C accumulator servicing and repair process needs controlled exposure to outside air for removal and installation while deployment of the accumulator must occur after other components in multi-component A/C repairs. The shipping caps should stay installed until fittings are ready for connection while immediate evacuation of the A/C system becomes necessary to stop moisture from contaminating the desiccant. A new accumulator must be replaced only when the ailing A/C compressor causes system contamination or when physical damages appear on the shell or desiccant due to exceeding one hour of pressure equalization with outside air. You should not replace the accumulator during repair when there is present any positive refrigerant pressure. Begin by evacuating the refrigerant before separating the condenser outlet fitting nut and minus adapter while discarding the O-ring and gasket seals so tighten the new components to 15 Nm (133 lb-in) upon installation. The accumulator outlet line clip needs removal to disconnect the fitting by unfastening its bolt, discard the O-ring seal and gasket seal before tightening the new fitting to 15 Nm (133 lb-in) torque. The two accumulator bolts should be removed before installation of new ones at 9 Nm (80 lb-in). The installation requires following the removal steps in reverse order and including the installation of replacement gasket and O-ring rubber seals and precise PAG oil addition to the refrigerant system before evacuating the system and performing leak tests and final charger.
