- Location: Situated deep within the vehicle’s dashboard, behind the center console.
- Material:
- Evaporator/Heater Core: Typically aluminum (evaporator) and copper/aluminum (heater core) fins and tubes.
- Housing: Durable, molded automotive-grade plastic.
- Connections: Includes dedicated inlet and outlet ports for refrigerant lines (from the A/C system) and coolant lines (from the engine cooling system). Also has electrical connectors for blower motor, blend door actuators, and temperature sensors.
- Design: An intricate assembly designed for precise fitment within the dashboard cavity, optimized for efficient airflow and temperature control. Being an “LHD unit,” it’s configured for vehicles with the steering wheel on the left.
- Durability: Built to last, but susceptible to issues like evaporator leaks (refrigerant), heater core leaks (coolant), or housing damage (cracks, broken blend doors) over time.
