Part Description
This OEM A/C air compressor was removed from a 2016 FIAT 500 equipped with a 2.4L gasoline engine. The compressor has been thoroughly inspected by our technicians and is currently on the shelf ready to ship. All mounting brackets and electrical connections are intact and in good working condition.
The A/C compressor is the heart of your vehicle’s air conditioning system, pressurizing refrigerant to create cool air. Common reasons for replacement include internal bearing failure, clutch problems, refrigerant leaks, or electrical issues. A failing compressor often produces grinding noises, won’t engage, or causes the A/C system to blow warm air.
