Four Seasons A/C Compressor P/N:78499
Four Seasons 78378 A/C compressor for the 2001-2009 Chrysler PT Cruiser and other vehicles compresses refrigerant and moves it through the air conditioning system. This new compressor is a Denso 10S17C unit.
Warm air from the vents or a grinding noise when the A/C is on can mean the compressor is worn, though a leaking condenser or a faulty pressure switch can be behind the same signs.
It is a direct-fit replacement for the 2001-2009 Chrysler PT Cruiser, the 2000-2002 Dodge Neon and the 2000-2001 Plymouth Neon.
