8. CHECK CONDENSER FAN MOTOR ROTATES
9. CHECK AMOUNT OF REFRIGERANT
If you can see bubbles in the sight glass, additional refrig-
erant is needed.
(See page AC±22)
10. IF NO COOLING OR IT IS INSUFFICIENT, INSPECT
FOR LEAKAGE
Using a gas leak tester, inspect each component of the re-
frigeration system.
REFRIGERATION SYSTEM
Checking of Refrigerant Volume
1. RUN ENGINE AT APPROX. 1,500 RPM
2. OPERATE AIR CONDITIONER AT MAXIMUM
COOLING FOR A FEW MINUTES
3. CHECK AMOUNT OF REFRIGERANT
Observe the sight glass on the receiver.
Immediately after the air conditioner is
turned off, refrigerant in sight glass stays
clear
When the air conditioner is turned off,
refrigerant foams and then stays clearEvacuate and charge system.
Then check for leak with gas leak
detector
Temperature between compressor inlet
and outlet is noticeably different
Discharge the excess refrigerant to
specified amount No temperature difference between
compressor inlet and outletCheck for leak with gas leak

COMPRESSOR
ON±VEHICLE INSPECTION
1. INSTALL MANIFOLD GAUGE SET
(See page AC±23)
2. RUN ENGINE AT APPROX. 1,500 RPM
3. CHECK COMPRESSOR FOR FOLLOWING:
(1) High pressure gauge reading is not lower and low
pressure gauge reading is not higher than normal.
(b) Metallic sound
(e) Leakage from shaft seal
If defects are found, repair the compressor.
4. CHECK MAGNETIC CLUTCH
(a) Inspect the pressure plate, and the rotor for signs of
oil.
(b) Check the clutch bearings for noise and grease leak-
age.
(e) Using an ohmmeter, measure the resistance of the
stator coil between the clutch lead wire and ground.
Standard resistance: 3.4 ± 3.8
at 20°C (68°F)
If resistance value is not as specified, replace the coil.
(d) Connect the positive (+) lead from the battery to ter-
minal 1, check that the magnetic clutch is energized.
If magnetic clutch is not energized, replace the coil.
NOTICE: Do not short positive (+) lead wire on the vehicle
by applying battery voltage.
Installation of Manifold Gauge Set
1. CLOSE BOTH HAND VALVES OF MANIFOLD GAUGE
SET
2. INSTALL CHARGING HOSES OF GAUGE SET TO
CHARGING VALVES
Connect the low pressure hose to the low pressure charg-
ing valve and the high ..pressure hose to the high pres-
sure charging valve. Tighten the hose nuts by hand.
HINT Do not apply compressor oil to the seat of the con-
nection.
