Kia Soul EV (PS EV) 2015-2020 Service Manual / Heating,Ventilation, Air Conditioning / Heat Pump / Refrigerant Temperature Sensor Repair procedures

Inspection

1. Vcc | 2. Ground

Check the voltage between terminals 6 and 7.

1. | Using the tester, check the resistance between terminals 1 and 2.

Replacement

[Refrigerant Temperature Sensor #1]

1. | Recover the refrigerant with a recovery/ recycling/ charging station.
• | Do not use the same A/C recovery / charging station as conventional belt-driven compressors.
• | Since the electric compressor uses high-voltage, POE oil with high resistivity should be used.
• | If PAG oil mixes into the POE oil of the system, dielectric breakdown may occur due to decreased volumetric resistivity and the A/C compressor may not work.

2. | Seperate the charge door handle (A).

3. | Loosen the clips and bolts on the front bumper upper cover.

4. | Lift the front bumper uppser cover (A) slightly.

5. | Remove the front bumper upper cover (A) after loosening the mounting screw (B) on the side.

6. | Remove the refrigerant temperature sensor #1 (B) after disconnecting the refrigerant temperature sensor #1 connector (A).

7. | Install in the reverse order of removal.
• | Do not use the same A/C recovery / charging station as conventional belt-driven compressors.
• | Since the electric compressor uses high-voltage, POE oil with high resistivity should be used.
• | If PAG oil mixes into the POE oil of the system, dielectric breakdown may occur due to decreased volumetric resistivity and the A/C compressor may not work.

[Refrigerant Temperature Sensor #2]

1. | Recover the refrigerant with a recovery/ recycling/ charging station.
• | Do not use the same A/C recovery / charging station as conventional belt-driven compressors.
• | Since the electric compressor uses high-voltage, POE oil with high resistivity should be used.
• | If PAG oil mixes into the POE oil of the system, dielectric breakdown may occur due to decreased volumetric resistivity and the A/C compressor may not work.

2. | Remove the refrigerant temperature sensor #2 (B) after disconnecting the refrigerant temperature sensor #2 connector (A).

3. | Install in the reverse order of removal.
• | Do not use the same A/C recovery / charging station as conventional belt-driven compressors.
• | Since the electric compressor uses high-voltage, POE oil with high resistivity should be used.
• | If PAG oil mixes into the POE oil of the system, dielectric breakdown may occur due to decreased volumetric resistivity and the A/C compressor may not work.
