DENSO Auto Parts A/C Condenser P/N:477-0800
Help keep cabin air cold on hot days with the DENSO Auto Parts A/C Condenser 477-0504, a 2001-2004 Toyota Tacoma AC condenser built to OE quality. It is a direct-fit replacement for the 2001-2004 Toyota Tacoma. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-specific details.
The condenser sits in the refrigerant loop after the compressor. It releases heat from the hot, high-pressure refrigerant so the refrigerant condenses into a liquid before it moves on through the system. This condenser is part of DENSO's First Time Fit® line of A/C components, which are designed and manufactured to integrate with the vehicle's original air conditioning system.
Signs a 2001-2004 Toyota Tacoma condenser may need replacing include warm air from the vents, refrigerant leaks or oily residue on the core, and damaged or blocked fins. If a failed condenser is the cause, this unit replaces it. Diagnose the A/C system before replacing the condenser, because other components can cause similar symptoms. Have the refrigerant recovered, and the system evacuated and recharged, as directed by the vehicle service information.
