What are the steps and precautions for servicing and repairing the A/C Accumulator on Ford Fusion?

Service and repair of the A/C accumulator requires caution against exposure to outside air while also performing it as the final step during work involving multiple A/C components. The A/C system needs to begin its vacuum process automatically after receiving its new A/C accumulator because delayed operation risks desiccant moisture contamination. The replacement of an A/C accumulator becomes necessary only when physical indications point to failed A/C compressor contamination or accumulator damage due to both physical harm and moisture exposure when all refrigerant escapes and permits atmospheric pressure intrusion. The accumulator must stay intact when there exists any positive refrigerant pressure before repair work begins. The recovery of refrigerant should occur first followed by hoisting the vehicle into the neutral gear and extracting the lower radiator air deflector. Begin by unscrewing and removing the plastic accumulator cap and try to remove the accumulator plug again only after opening a refrigerant system fitting to release any vacuum pressure. The accumulator plug can be removed after pushing it upwards and separating the snap ring so you can insert the bolt from the A/C desiccant cartridge service kit at its center for easier removal. A suitable tool should be used to grasp the grab handle of the accumulator for its removal. The installation requires following the removal steps backward while applying residual refrigerant oil to the O-ring seals of the accumulator plug and verifying that the system contains the appropriate quantity of clean PAG oil. Shut down the system before performing an evacuation of the refrigerant system and leak tests followed by charging operation.
