# INFO ON CONDENSER AIR DUCT REPLACEMENT (DESIGN CHANGE)

#### SUBJECT: Information on Replacement of Condenser Air Inlet Duct Assembly

#### MODELS AFFECTED: All 1991 Saturn Coupes equipped with Air Conditioning

#### PURPOSE:

--------- A design change was implemented on late production 1991 Coupes to eliminate the support pad brackets that attach the condenser air inlet duct assembly to the front fascia support pad assemblies (refer to Figure). The front fascia support pad assemblies are now constructed of heavier material requiring no support pad brackets.

If a condenser air inlet duct assembly is replaced on 1991 Coupes, built before the design change, both front fascia support pad assemblies must be replaced, since the support pad brackets have been deieted. However, there is no need to replace the condenser air inlet duct assembly if the front fascia support pad assemblies are replaced. Coupes built before the design change can be identified by the presence of the above mentioned brackets on the condenser air inlet duct assembly.

#### PROCEDURE:

----------- Replace condenser air inlet duct assembly and front fascia support pad assemblies according to the removal and installation procedures in the "Front End" section of the "Body/Collision Repair Service Manual."

#### PARTS REQUIREMENTS:

21094902 Pad Asm-Front Fascia Support (Right Side) 21094903 Pad Asm-Front Fascia Support (Left Side) 21030137 Duct Asm-Cond Air Inlet
