My A/C compressor locked up on my 08 Rio. I have my reman compressor, new desiccant bag, and seals. I can see on the left side of the condenser where the desiccant bag goes in, but I am wondering how to replace it the easiest way. Do I need to pull the front bumper? Pull the radiator/condenser fans and push radiator forward? AllData didnt help, just says labor time is 1.5 hrs. Any help would be great.

Hi, did you ever replace the desiccant in your Kia? I’m trying to change it in my Sportage, but can’t for the life of me get the plug out of the condenser. Any suggestions?
