    Testing an AC compressor

    I have a spare AC compressor, but I want to make sure that it's working before I pay someone to fit it.

    Is there an easy way I can test the compressor without fitting it?

    Thanks,

      Can anyone tell me the part number of the AC compresser for the LHD RS2?

      Or show me a pic of what it looks like?

      Just want to make sure that mine is genuine without taking the bumper etc. off.

          You can see if the bearing is ok and you can test the clutch. But the performance of comresor cannot be tested. Drain all the oil and if in oil there is no metalic parts then it is 90% ok. Normaliy it works or is in small pices.
