A/C Failing on Your BMW or Hyundai? Replace the Compressor Valve for $54.
The A/C compressor control valve (solenoid) for BMW and Hyundai variable-displacement compressors (KH-22) regulates refrigerant displacement based on cabin cooling demand. A failed solenoid causes weak or no A/C cooling, erratic compressor cycling, or complete A/C failure.
✓ What You Get: A/C compressor control solenoid valve (KH-22) for BMW 1/3/5 Series, X1/X3/X5 and Hyundai Accent, Elantra, i30, Sonata, Tucson, Santa Fe — restores full A/C cooling.
What's Included
- 1× A/C compressor control solenoid valve (KH-22)
- O-ring seal(s)
Why Replace?
- Restores Cooling: Faulty solenoid reduces compressor stroke and refrigerant output.
- Stops Erratic Cycling: Failed valve causes rapid compressor on/off without reaching cabin temperature.
- Saves $200+ vs Compressor: New compressor $250+; solenoid fix costs $54.
- 30-Minute Install: Remove compressor front cover, swap solenoid, reassemble.
Vehicle Compatibility
| Make | Models | Valve |
|---|---|---|
| BMW | 1 Series, 3 Series, 5 Series, X1, X3, X5 | KH-22 |
| Hyundai | Accent, Elantra, i30, Sonata, Tucson, Santa Fe | KH-22 |
About This Control Valve
The KH-22 A/C compressor control solenoid valve fits BMW and Hyundai variable-displacement A/C compressors. These compressors modulate refrigerant flow by adjusting internal swash plate angle via the solenoid — solenoid failure is the most common cause of A/C degradation on these platforms before the compressor itself fails.
⚠ Verify Compressor Model Before Ordering: Confirm your A/C compressor uses a KH-22 type control valve before purchasing.
