Heating system Chevrolet-Niva: change of heat exchanger of the cabin heater. Chevrolet Niva Radiator Radiator Replacing with Air Conditioning

Unfortunately, it is necessary to put up with the fact that the stove radiator on Chevrolet Niva sometime comes out and has to change it. The reason for the failure is some details made of aluminum. Agree that the stove began to warm badly - not only difficult, but also absolutely wrong. Correct temperature mode Provides maintenance of excellent microclimate in the cabin. In such a car, it is comfortable to move even a long period at any time of the year.

So, if you ran into a bad work of the stove, finding out at the same time that the main reason for the problem is the radiator, we do not recommend hurrying to a hundred. The masters of the masters will quickly hold work, but requested the round sum. We offer you to save it, hold in your pocket, and work yourself yourself. I would also like to note that sometimes halshchiki work for a hundred who are ready to climb your eyes to help you. As a result of such a "workshop" of work, you will soon need to repair. So much easier to fulfill everything yourself.

Replacement process

For the reason that it is not the easiest process, it should be started when there are good reasons, and you also observe the signs that explicitly indicate problems encountered in the heating system. Experienced masters share recommendations, relying on which you can put a "diagnosis" to your car, indicating that the radiator replacement time has come. If the stove begins to warm badly, so in your cabin vehicle You constantly permeates chills, it means that the problem with heating exists. If, besides you smell antifreeze, it means that your fears are all the more confirmed. Even more, you must be worried if you have noticed that the level of the coolant used is constantly decreasing, and under the rug in the cabin you suddenly discovered the "swamp" with a fatty liquid.

First, of course, check all the nozzles and hoses that are components of the heating and cooling system. Make sure their integrity. If this is the case, then the culprit of such troubles is still your stove radiator, the resource of which has already been exhausted. Even in the absence of knowledge you have, how to change the radiator, do not leave before the problem. We are ready to help you and issue concrete recommendations, relying on which you workshops to replace the stove radiator on the Niva Chevrolet with air conditioning and without it.

There are two ways. The first way implies work that do not need to remove the torpedo. However, this method is accompanied by an explicit disadvantage that the air conditioner will occur during the task, therefore, at the end, it will have to fill it with a refrigerant. The second method can be done by removing the dashboard. Unfortunately, such a replacement of the stove radiator on your Chevrolet will be accompanied by greater cost-effective physical and temporal resources. Decide how much the way for you is preferable to learn the recommendations offered by us and proceed to actions.

First method

This method is suitable for those who are accustomed to all actions to perform lightning times, because it cannot allow its transport medium to simply stand in the garage. The main disadvantage of this method is that you at the very beginning of the action must release the entire freon from the air conditioner. If you wish to facilitate the reverse assembly process, take care of it even before disassembling, arm yourself with a marker and march all the bolts, screws and other components.

First unscrew all the bolts and remove the glove box. Next, reorient your efforts on the airbag if you have it. Remove the passenger duct by unscrewing the bolts, disconnecting the plug. Let you not scare that even when the air duct application is not amenable to you. The manufacturer sometimes gluits them with scotch, so you will strengthen your head and everything will turn out.

Remove the nozzle located at the bottom, where the passenger's legs usually are usually located. Next, dismantle the control unit by disconnecting the wires from it. So that these wires do not interfere with you, you can temporarily link themselves. The next step will be the extraction of snail. You again will have toft of several screws, further disconnecting the cables and free snaps. Now go from the hood side, find the air conditioner tubes and unscrew them.

Now we got to the radiator. However, it is impossible to immediately dismantle it. Initially, it should be cut into it in it, substitute a pre-prepared container and drain the entire antifreeze remaining in it. Such actions are sufficiently important, since when you ignore them, as soon as you disconnect the nozzles and hoses, the entire antifreeze will start splashing in different directions, polluting everything around, including the interior. It will continue to continue the process at the same time.

After completing the drainage of antifreeze, you can safely and install a new one. Of course, you can immediately begin the assembly process. Do not forget to visually inspect the outer surface of the nozzles and hoses to exclude their disrepair. Otherwise, you will have to repeat such a procedure again if you set back the nozzle provoking flowing.

Second way

You can use the second way. Initially, turn off the battery, then drain the entire cooling fluid from the radiator to the last drop. Absolutely will not even even blow expansion tank. Now unscrew the four bolts and remove the radio with its guides. Go to a responsible moment - you have to remove the instrument panel. Press the snatch and pull the panel on yourself. So that it is easier than you "heard", pull it not only forward, but also slightly right.

We now offer you to use the marker and sign all connecting parts. In this case, when assembling you will be easier to perform all the necessary actions, you will not have to strain the memory. Next, by unscrewing the bolts, remove the torpedo. The next stage implies extraction. First remove its sidebar, then pull it slightly, then disconnect the cables and the illumination terminals. Next, remove the steering column. From the side of the panel you will see the strut, which is also important to remove. Direct your efforts to extract the fastening of the panel amplifier, fan. Now you managed to get to the stove and air conditioner. These two devices are attached on four screws, three of them are easily twisted, but the fourth, "most stubborn", gives care only if you get the edge of the amplifier. Remove the tee stove and its casing. Now nothing will prevent you, you can calmly replace not only the radiator, but, if necessary, even fully the stove. Next, you will need to perform a reverse assembly. Do not hurry, do all the actions in the reverse sequence neatly. In this case, you will be able to replace so that even the most experienced masters simply become and envy your productive work.

So, the process is time consuming and responsible, but any car owner can cope with him, who is ready to put such a goal. Based on our recommendations, it will be easier to figure out the sequence of actions, make them and get the maximum result.

The phenomenon of fogging, the appearance of the non-perfume smell in the cabin, the feeling of the sweet lift belongs to the first signs of the radiator fault of the heater stove. The reason for this is the disorders of the tightness of the compounds, the appearance of tosol heaters with a characteristic turn.

The location of the radiator is marked by the arrow

In addition to the pump in the heating system also includes a heat exchanger (radiator). Located in the center of the instrument panel and visually you can see.

The radiator of the heater is in the legs to the left of the passenger

Causes of faults

Radiator sweating heater

Long-term car operation inevitably leads:

• Appearance: traces of antifreeze under the driver's rug, specific odor, raid (fat) on the windows. Insufficient heating of the cabin.
• The need for frequent pouring to Tosol expansion tank.

Radiator replacement process

In the process of replacing the radiator

Independent replacement of the radiator is carried out by a set of tools, including flat and crucible scolding, passatia, small size (8, 10, 14) end heads.

Previously: the terminal leads to the "mass" is disconnected. Ignition key is better to extract. It is desirable to start the process for 2-3 minutes for the purpose of fully discharge of the backup capacitor.

We merge Tosol

Adhering to the stage preparatory operationsTosol merges from the heating system.

Unscrew the cover

The usual variant of the Tosola drain, accompanied by the removal of the lower bolt and the discovery of the lid of the expansion tank.

Second alternative method It is performed by opening the tank cover and disconnecting the chinstall cooling tube. A different hose is inserted into the scene, through which antifreeze is merged. To forcing the bar process, you can blow to remove the residues of the liquid.

Technology without removing the instrument panel

As the basis of the heat exchanger replacement, drivers experience is taken, which allows you to eliminate complex dismantling procedures. dashboard.

Disassembly stages:

1. It is removed, the so-called, glove compartment and passenger heating air duct (feet) unsubstantiality.

   

   The glove box is shot

2. Weave the clamp, the rubber tube is removed, and the residue of the liquid is merged into a pre-prepared container. The upper clamp weakens, and the nozzle is pulled out.
3. The radiator, after the removal of two screws is shifted on itself until it is stored in the air duct.
4. Onsuated the nut fastening of the relay cover with its subsequent removal. Visually noticeably as prevents the radiator eating the corner of the plastic heat exchanger frame.

Complete set with air conditioning

The dismantling of the stove radiator is complicated by the vehicle with air conditioning. Operation is painstaking, but an inqual, curiosity greatly simplifies the process.

In the process of replacement, you will need to remove the air conditioner evaporator.

Of the existing two ways to replace the stove radiator, an option with the removal of the instrument panel is preferable. The process ensures the safety of the air conditioner. In another case, there is a need to disrupt it with subsequent refueling by Freon.

The panel dismantling provides steps identical to the heat exchanger removal procedure without air conditioning. For some exceptions:

1. Ankb terminal is disconnected and Tosol is drained into the cooked container. Bochingly purge to leak all the liquid.
2. The bolts are unscrewed, and a radio tape recorder is extracted with a salazzo. Overtowershrup (selflessness), side panels, instrument shield are removed. It does not forget to remove the mount buttons. By pressing the latch, take the panel to the right and a little on yourself, freeing it out of the grooves.
3. Chips, connections should be marked with a marker, which will speed up the processing assembly. Overwhelming, the bolts are released, as well as the torpedo itself. Freaking the side shield, the helm cover, the control unit is retrieved. SOND is disconnected by the backlight connector.
4. The steering column is turned off, the shield mounting (bottom) and the strut is dismantled.
5. Disconnect the panel amplifier (4 bolts).
6. Freeing fan mounts, the stove is removed with the air-conditioned as an aspir. The latter fastening bolts to the body are also discouraged.

So, the stove is free, after removing the tee from it. In order for the assembly, there is no extra mounting parts, stick to the strict, reverse sequence.

The conviction of the radiator malfunction comes after checking the supply tubes, nozzles, hoses for tightness.

Final stage of work

In the reverse sequence, the tubes are mounted, the clamps are attached, the expansion tank bolt is screwed. The bar is poured to Tosol and after several days of operation of the machine, the level of fluid in the tank is controlled. The absence of heights, smell and warm comfort in the cabin will be the reason for the installation at the place of the glove box.

Today we have a well-known car in Chevrolet Niva ( Chevrolet Niva. 4x4), 2005 release on which it is necessary to replace the stove radiator. Mileage at the car 139 thousand km There was a problem, the antifreeze of the stove radiator began under the legs of the front passenger. The owner traveled for a while simply pouring the coolant, but soon the head became more and more and more, the replacement is necessary. Show detailed photo And the video lesson how to do it with your own hands.

Replacing the radiator of the stove of the Chevrolet Niva without air conditioning

First of all, we need to merge the antifreeze, for this we open the hood and unscrew the expansion tank. We put the capacitance from below where the antifreeze will be poured, the head to 13 (preferably hex), we unscrew the special stopper on the block:

Insert the hose through which the coolant will be poured. From the radiator, there is no need to drain, sufficiently from the block. After that, we go to the salon, we unscrew all the screws of the trim and the glove box:

We dismantle the glove box do not forget to remove connectors from the terminal and the backlight. After that, put the package so that the antifreeze does not waste the cabin. You can not pretend the package, but simply drill the old radiator drill and merge the remaining coolant. Unscrew the air duct at the beginning. Weakening and tightening the nozzles:

We unscrew the radiator itself (2 screws). Pull it out:

To pull out the old stove radiator, we came out relatively easily, but the most difficult will put a new one in place. New stove radiator with us AT firks for ordering 1060-023RA. Before installing, we stick around the perimeter of the foam rubber. This is done in order to remove the slots through which the air passes by. After such a crossing, the air flow will only go through the cells of the radiator, significantly increasing the efficiency of its operation.

In order to new radiator The stoves got up without any problems, it is necessary to cut a little to the edge of its corner. Here's how we got:

I wipe the planting surface from antifreeze residues. We insert the radiator not to the end, we wear nozzles on it, switch completely and screw the screws of the attachment. Then the place where we saw the corner can be smeared with a special sealant so that the work of the stove did not lose its effectiveness, I recommend abroy-gray 999, it does not publish when heated unpleasant odors. While the air duct and the glove box do not put, pour antifreeze, we bring the car and drive the air plug. To do this, it is best to call the right side On a small rise or just raise the car from one side with a jack.

For the fill, we have left about 7 liters of antifreeze, the right side was raised to the highest possible height using a jack. We bring the car, inspect all the connections, whether there are leaks in them. In our case, the upper nozzle after heating began to pass antifreeze, dragged it rigorously, helped.

Neva Chevrolet Replacing radiator stove Price

The cost is very much varied depending on the settlement, where it will be replaced and from the presence or absence of an air conditioner. Work on replacing the radiator without air conditioning is in the hands of a skillful wizard for a maximum of one hour. The price of such work is from 1 to 3 thousand rubles, plus you buy the heat exchanger itself, foam, sealant, 7 liters of antifreeze and, if necessary, new clamps.

Much higher than the cost of working on Chevrolet Niva equipped with air conditioning, there will have to tinker, not everyone will take a job, only if he does not have other things. I tried to call a few auto-workshops in our city. The price variation turned out from 4 to 12 thousand rubles, while the car will have to be left for 2 days. The masters for such work are taken extremely reluctant.

Backup video How to replace the stove radiator in Chevrolet Niva 4x4:

The rollers show the replacement process by car without air conditioning.

Dismantling of the radiator of the cooling system may be required if it is loss of sealing, or if there are large damage. In this article, we will consider in detail the course of such work on both the usual car and the equipped air conditioning system. We will immediately make a reservation that we will not need any additional auxiliary devices to carry out such work, a rather conventional set of tools.

How to remove the cooling radiator on Chevrolet Niva detailed in detail in the video below:

Preparatory work

With visible traces of damage, even without leakage of coolant, the cooling radiator requires replacement.

Before proceeding with the work, make sure that all the tools are in hand, the WD-40 fluid for the best removal of skis parts, the capacity of at least 5 liters, for the drain of the spent coolant, as well as the additional container for draining the hydraulic fluid drain.

Step-by-step procedure for removing the cooling radiator on Chevrolet Niva

1. We heat the car on the pit or the lift, turn on the hand-made brake.
2. Next, turn off the minus terminal with. Now you can begin to drain the coolant, and this is done as follows.
3. We assign the heater lever in the cabin on the red mark and open the lid on the expansion tank.

   

   Turn on the maximum "heat"

4. Then, under the car looking for a crane, with which it is necessary to merge liquid. It is made of plastic and confuse him, it is unlikely to succeed.

   

   We wait until the whole Tosol will turn out.

5. Slowly unscrewing it, the liquid will be cooked through it and soon it can rush through strong pressure (that is why the work should be carried out by waiting for the motor cooling - approx.).
6. Waiting for the fluid, go, go to work under the hood.

   

   For the convenience of the drain, remove the protection against dirt

7. The next step will be dismantling air filter And the casing, for this it is enough to unscrew four locking bolts, and weaken the clamps of the nozzle.

   

   The disassembly should be taken carefully so that the dirt does not get into the nozzle.

8. Next, open the lid on the hydraulic tank tank and unscrew the hose mounting clamps following it to the radiator.

   

   The hydraulic tank is marked by the arrow

9. Before the first of two hoses is completely dismantled, prepare the container and drain the fluid there, repeat the operation and with the second hose.

We continue the work, but already with the radiator

1. In order to make a dismantling of the radiator, we need a head to "10" and the extension for the key. It holds on five bolts that need to be completely unscrewed.
2. Next, dismantle the beep, turning off the terminals from it in advance, as well as from the cooling fan start block.
3. Using the key to "7", weaken and disconnect the clamp, from the nozzle running.

   

   You can also use scolding for the best removal.

4. For the convenience of removing the radiator, it may be necessary to dismantle the "fly-trap", it keeps on 4 bolts, with his removal it should not be difficult.
5. Then unscrew the fastening of the radiator itself when it is done, you will have the opportunity to dismantle the two nozzles going on the radiator at the top, from the passenger side.

   

   During the parsing of these parts, you may need an assistant.

6. After that, you can split the block with fans and the radiator itself.
7. To dismantle and their discharge, six point of attachment are provided, which can be unscrewed by the key to "10".
8. When all bolts are unscrewed, the radiator does not care anyway, because it will hold the hose in the lower part and the air unit.
9. We disconnect these parts using the key to "10", twisting 2 bolts, and the air unit just bend, because it is made of a light metal.
10. Once all the details are dismantled, you can remove the radiator from your landing. Please note that there will be about 200-300 ml of coolant inside it, consider it during the analysis.

Removing the cooling radiator by car with air conditioning

Work on the cooling radiator removal cars equipped with air conditioning are generally similar, but they have their own characteristics.

When replacing the radiator on the car equipped with air conditioning, at first glance it may seem difficult, due to the large number of nozzles and other parts, however, it is important not to hurry in the course of work and do everything neatly.

Hello! Very needed step-by-step instruction To remove the stove radiator without. I have Chevrolet Niva (Burton United) with air conditioning, bought in 2010. Thank you! (Yuri)

Hello, Yuri. With the need to replace the radiator, many nivodes face. About how to replace the device without removing the dashboard, we will also tell me further.

Replacing the device

First you need to turn off the battery terminal.

1. Make a dismantling of the side panel, as well as a bad drawer, reloading all the necessary screws.
2. Next, unscrew the bolt and dismantle the air duct located in the passenger legs. Unscrew the electronic engine control system, it will be easier.
3. Removing the airbag plugs, which is attached on four bolts from the inside. Next, cut the plastic and remove the air duct.
4. Now it is necessary to remove the cabin filter element. Remove the so-called snail together with the damper body, the design should be moved to the side. After that, turn off the supply wires and dismantle the electric motor along with the snail.
5. Next, you will need to unscrew the evaporator securing with two bolts on the inside. In addition, disconnect the nozzles along with the fixing device.
6. Bottom plates should be bent. The evaporator itself should be slightly moved to the side (right). Here will be the most careful as possible, much power to apply in no case in order not to damage the element. Press the evaporator to the floor of the vehicle, then just pull it out.
7. Radiator hoses should be removed. If you see that they are in a deplorable state, then they are immediately desirable to replace them, then the nozzles can be trimmed. In addition, it will be much easier. The fastener bolts also need to be removed.
8. Then you can only dismantle the element and replace it with a new one. All further assembly is made in the reverse order. You need to wait for some time until Shumka is dry. Pay attention to the condition of all hoses and pipes, if you notice any disadvantages, we recommend that they immediately change them.
