Air Con Condenser

There is one in front of each front radiator.

You will need to remove the front bumper and the air ducting to get to them.

Once replaced you will need to recharge the system and check for leaks - then reassemble the ducts and bumper.

If you don't have the tools and experience to re-charge and test the AC system I would suggest letting a professional do that part. Bumper, duct and actual mechanical replacement are easy.

I'm not sure if this applicable in the USA, but in the UK I've seen a few door to door companies or shops on DIY automotive TV shows where they will remove the gas from your system.

Then allow you to do whatever repairs you need to.

Then once you are done refill your system and check for leaks/certify.

I'm not sure if the cost savings would be substantial vs. a complete shop done by a professional.
