A/C General Diagnostic Procedures
Diagnosis is an important first step in A/C system servicing.
To save time and effort, systems should be carefully checked to
identify the causes of poor performance. By using the following
diagnostic charts, defective components or system problems can be
quickly located. To identify problems that are specific to one system,
refer to the repair section of this manual. The charts in this section
apply to all systems.
PREPARATION FOR TESTING
1) Attach Low and High pressure gauges.
2) Start engine and allow to warm up.
3) Set system to COOL and blower to HIGH.
4) Open car doors and hood.
5) Run engine at fast idle for 2-3 minutes.

Refrigerant recovery/recycling equipment is used to remove
refrigerant from vehicle's A/C system without polluting atmosphere. To
remove and recycle refrigerant, connect the recovery/recycling system
and follow instructions provided with the system.
The removed refrigerant is filtered, dried and stored in a
tank within the recovery/recycling system until it is ready to be
pumped back into the vehicle's A/C system. With refrigerant stored in
the recovery/recycling system, A/C system can be opened without
polluting atmosphere.
NOTE: Separate sets of hoses, gauges and refrigerant
recovery/recycling equipment MUST be used for R-12 and
R-134a based systems. DO NOT mix R-12 and R-134a
refrigerants, as their refrigerant oils and desiccants are
not compatible. On systems with R-134a refrigerant, use
Polyalkylene Glycol (PAG) wax-free refrigerant oil.
