(8) With the front clutch plate assembly tight
against the shims, measure the air gap between ar-
mature plate and rotor-pulley face with feeler gauges
(Fig. 4). The air gap should be between 0.35 and 0.65
mm (0.013 and 0.025 inch). If proper air gap is not
obtained, add or subtract shims until desired air gap
is obtained.
(9) Install compressor shaft nut. Tighten nut to
17.5 N Im (155 in. lbs.) torque.
Shims may compress after tightening shaft bolt.
Check air gap in four or more places to verify if air
gap is still correct. Spin pulley for final check. (10) Install the compressor onto the mount.
CLUTCH/COIL BREAK-IN
After a new clutch/coil has been installed, cycle the
A/C clutch 20 times (5 sec. on and 5 sec. off). During
this procedure, run engine at 1500-2000 rpm and set
the A/C on the HIGH mode. This procedure (burnish-
ing) will seat the opposing friction surfaces and pro-
vide a higher clutch torque capability.
THERMAL LIMITER SWITCH
The Thermal Limiter Switch (Fig. 5) is bolted to
the side of the compressor case. It measures compres-
sor surface temperature and is used as a safety de-
vice to cut battery voltage to the compressor clutch
coil. This is performed if compressor case tempera-
ture is excessive. This switch is NOT USEDto cycle the clutch coil.
After the compressor has cooled to normal operating
temperature, the switch will reset.
DIAGNOSIS
The switch can remain bolted to the compressor for
testing. (1) Disconnect the wiring connectors from the ther-
mal limiter switch. (2) Using an ohmmeter, check for continuity be-
tween the two wiring leads. If continuity is not de-
tected, replace switch. Also check for possible
compressor overheating.
² Switch cut-out (no continuity) occurs at 125ÉC
6 3ÉC (255ÉF 637ÉF).
² Switch cuts back in (continuity) at 110ÉC 66ÉC
(230ÉF 642ÉF).
REMOVAL
The refrigerant system can remained fully charged
for thermal limiter switch replacement. After removing the thermal limiter switch, always
replace with a new unit. (1) Disconnect wiring connectors from switch.
(2) Remove the bolt retaining the switch holding
clamp and the switch to the side of the compressor
(Fig. 6). (3) Pry the switch from compressor case with a
screwdriver.
CLEANING
Remove silicone filler from the socket and thor-
oughly clean the socket with thinners.
INSTALLATION
(1) Place the new thermal limiter switch so that
the flat copper surface faces upward. (2) Apply the specified silicone filler (KE 347 RTV)
to the flat copper surface until the surface is evenly
covered. When silicone is applied, apply only from
tube and not by hand. (3) Install the thermal limiter switch into the
socket and secure it with the thermal protector (lim-
iting switch) fixing plate and bolt. Tighten the bolt

tem control. The computer control panel is not ser-
viceable except for the illumination bulbs. For bulb replacement, refer to A/C-Heater Control
Lamp Replacement in Group 8E Instrument Panel. The ATC Computer/Control Panel is located in the
center of the instrument panel above the radio.
REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
Refer to A/C-Heater control replacement in the
Switch and Panel Component section of Group 8E,
Instrument Panel and Gauges.
POWER MODULE
The power module (PM) (Fig. 4) receives pulse
width modulated logic signals from the computer
control. The PM then supplies varied voltage to the
blower motor ground circuit for different blower
speeds based on the logic signal. The power module
is not serviceable and must be replaced if found to be
defective.
REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
(1) Disconnect the negative battery cable.
(2) Remove glove box/ash tray assembly. Refer to
Switch and Panel Component Service section of
Group 8E. (3) Remove the four PM attaching screws (Fig. 5).
(4) Disconnect electrical connector.
(4) Gently extract PM (to prevent damage to A/C
evaporator) from A/C-heater housing and remove
from under instrument panel. To install, reverse the preceding operation. Perform
systems check.
AMBIENT TEMPERATURE SENSOR
The ambient air temperature sensor is located in
the A/C housing above the glove box. This is also a
thermistor and will pick up on the environmental
ambient temperature. The computer control uses the
information provided by the ambient sensor to:
² Regulate the low blower speed
² Temperature offsets
² Mode control
The ambient sensor is not serviceable and must be
replaced if found to be defective. The ambient temperature sensor is plugged into a
two wire receptacle in the A/C-heater housing behind
and above the glove box.
REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
(1) Remove glove box/ash tray assembly.
(2) Locate and remove two attaching screws on
sensor receptacle (Fig. 6). (3) Carefully pull receptacle and sensor from hous-
ing.
CAUTION: It is possible for the sensor to hang up
on the edge of the hole in the A/C-heater housing
assembly during removal. This may cause the sen-
sor to disengage from the receptacle and fall into
the housing.
