Look under the dryer,there is a small liquid line going into the firewall,it is in there,right at the connection,there is a swelled portion of the line,use needle nose pliers to remove the orifice tube,and to install it,if this was at all helpful,please rate,thank you.
The orifice tube is either located at the compressor or the firewall, I believe.
I have never changed one, as I just charge the system with a can or two of refrigerant when low on pressure on the low side.

the orfice tube is located behind the passenger battery box.You have to either buy a new line from the dealer or buy a replacement orfice tube with metal housing from the autoparts.

I believe the orifice tube on this model requires the a/c pipe to be cut to install a new tube. You need to discharge the system, replace the tube, then evacuate miosture with a vacuum pump, then recharge with R134A refirgerant. Not a job for a non technical person.
The oriifce is in the line just before the evaporator that is in your car a/c heater case. It is where the liquid refrigerant turns into a vapor as it comes out of the orifice and then it absorbs heat from the air going into you car, thus blowing cold air. Moisutre in the warm air condenses and as he iar gets cold and it drains out of your evaporator and out the drain & onto the ground

orfice should be located on the accumulator, where the large line connects.
SOURCE: Where, exactly, is the orifice tube located on my truck?
the orfice tube is locate in the line between condenser and evaporator. near the spring lock coupling. you must unbolt the cruise servo and overflow bottle, reposition them out of way and you will see the line connection..the orfice is inside line near that uniion. the ac system must be evacuated prior to removal, and recharged afterwards..

There is one orifice tube for the font air. It is located in the a/c line coming from the condenser to the evap. core. the rear a/c has and expansion valve attached to the rear evap. core. Hope this helps.
