EIS Condenser A/C (With Code)

The Condenser acts like a radiator on a car and is generally located at the front where it can take advantage of Ram Air/Cooling Fan to help cool the high pressure vapour/liquid which was compressed by the compressor.

Condensers generally fail due to contaminates entering the Condenser and blocking it or the delicate fins of the condenser rotting due to decomposing debris such as leaves trapped next to the condenser; Annual Air Conditioning System service can prevent this happening.

Due to the location of Condensers they are very vulnerable to crash damage.

When replacing a compressor it is vital to replace the Receiver Drier as well; some later car models have the receiver drier built into the side of the Condenser.
