- In this video i show you how to replace the expansion valve on a Mazda CX-7 without removing the entire dash. dash removal is a serious pain in the butt and this way is super simple. the hardest part of all of this is the vent from your blower motor. the piece that holds the blower motor resistor. If you are not careful you will break the tabs so please take your time. other than that this is the easiest possible way i know to do it.

On point from start to finish did it in less than an hour thank u 🙏 ❤🇹🇹
Glad to hear! Way better than taking the entire dash out that’s for sure! Thanks for watching!
Thank you sir there aren’t many videos available for this car
Glad I was able to help. Ya this is hard to find info on and the repair manual tells you to pull the entire dash. Best of luck. Thanks for watching!
So simple. I watched a video where the whole dash had to be removed. That looked a nightmare for sure. Your method looks so simple compared. 👍
That is about the only information out there. I figured this way to make it a lot simpler and hopefully help a lot of people. Best of luck. Thanks for watching!
Great video! I do think a video on how to refill with the standard gauges one day would be good!
Thank you. Thanks I’ll keep that in mind and try to make one in the near future. Thanks for watching!
Just wondering what was the issue that you needed to replace the expansion valve? I am about to drop a compressor in a cx-7, It is very noisy and hi side pressure sky rockets to 500. Could not see any metal in the system.
Ya my high side was shooting up too high indicating a clogged expansion valve. Best of luck. Thanks for watching!
Hello the black hose in the 6:30 minute is the ac condensate drain ?
The two lines you see are the high pressure and low pressure lines. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching!
