A/C Line - Supermanifold to HVAC (Remove and Replace)
Correction code 18201702 0.66 NOTE: Unless otherwise explicitly stated in the procedure, the above correction code and FRT reflect all of the work required to perform this procedure, including the linked procedures. Do not stack correction codes unless explicitly told to do so.NOTE: See Flat Rate Times to learn more about FRTs and how they are created. To provide feedback on FRT values, email LaborTimeFeedback@tesla.com. NOTE: See Personal Protection to make sure wearing proper PPE when performing the below procedure.
- 2024-09-12: Added note on adding correction code for refrigerant - recovery/recharge as a separate activity to the Service Visit.
- 2024-02-28: Updated the routines.
Note
This procedure requires the A/C
Refrigerant (Recovery and Recharge) procedure to be performed. If not already
automatically added to the Service Visit, add correction code 18200102 as a
separate activity to the Service Visit.

Remove
- Remove the underhood storage unit. See Underhood Storage Unit (Remove and Replace).
- Remove the HEPA filter. See Assembly - Filter - HEPA (Remove and Replace).
- Recover the A/C refrigerant. See A/C Refrigerant (Recovery and Recharge).
- Remove the fresh intake duct. See Duct - Fresh Intake (Remove and Replace).
- Remove the 12V/LV auxiliary battery. See 12V/LV Battery (Remove and Replace).
-
Remove the bolts (x2) that attach the
supermanifold to HVAC A/C line to the HVAC assembly.
Tip: Use of the following tool(s) is recommended:
- 13 mm socket
- 6 in extension
- Flex head ratchet/flex head torque wrench
-
Remove the nut that attaches the
supermanifold to HVAC A/C line to the supermanifold.
Tip: This nut is behind the supermanifold to compressor A/C line.Tip: Use of the following tool(s) is recommended:
- 13 mm socket
- 6 in extension
- Flex head ratchet/flex head torque wrench
- Release the supermanifold to HVAC A/C line from the supermanifold, and then move the A/C line rearwards and up to remove it.
Install
-
Position the supermanifold to HVAC A/C
line on the supermanifold, inserting the A/C line stud into the stud hole on the
supermanifold.
NoteLubricate the new seal washers with the appropriate A/C oil. See Fluids and Capacities for A/C oil specifications.Tip: Reach under the supermanifold to position the A/C line.Tip: Look through the supermanifold stud hole to help locate the A/C line stud.
