1994 HONDA INTEGRA clutch

Troubleshooting
Reference Ghart
. Any abnormality must be correctsd before continuing the test.. Because of the precise measurgments needed, use a multimeter when testing.
Before performing any troubleshooting procedures check:. Fus€s .r No. 35120 A), *1 No. 33 (20 A), ), No. 13(7.5A). Grounds No. G401, G201, G'151, G101. Cleanliness and tightness of all connectors*1: In the under-hood fuse/relay box*2: In the under-dash fuse/relay box
SYMPTOMREMEDY
Radiator fan does not run 8t all.Perform the procedures in the flowchan (see page 22-8).
Condenser fan does not run at all.Perform the procedures in the flowchart (see page 22-10).
Both fans (radiator and condenser) do not
run for engine cooling, but they both run
with the Ay'C on.
Perform the procedures in the flowchan (see page 22-12).
Eoth fans do not run at all.Perform the procedures in the flowchart (see page 22-13).
Compressor clutch does not engage.Perform the procedures in the flowchart (see page 22-14).
Ay'C system does not come on
{compressor and both fans}.Perform the procedures in the flowchart (see page 22-16).

A/C Thermostat
Test
Connect battery power to terminal C and ground termi-
nal B, and connect a test light between terminals A and
NOTE: Use a 12 V, 3W- 18Wtest light.
Dip the A-/C thermostat into a cup filled with ice water,
and check the test light.
The light should go off at 37"F (3"C) or less. and should
come on at 39"F (4"C1 or more.
lf the light doesn't come on and go off as specified,
replace the Ay'C thermostat.
There should be continuity between the A and C term!nals when power and ground are connected to the Band D terminals.
There should be no continuity when power is discon-nected.

Glutch Inspection
Check the plated parts ot the pressure plate tor color
changes. peeling or other damage. lf there is dam-
8ge, replace the clutch set.
Check the pulley bearing play and drag by rotating
the pulley by hand. Replace the clutch set with a new
one if it is noisv or has excessive play/drag
Measure the clearance betlveen the pulley and the
pressure plate all the way around. lf the clearance is
not within specified limits, the pressure plate must be
removed and shims added or removed as required.
Jollowing the procedure on page 22-33.

NOTE: The shims are available in three thicknesses:
0.1 mm, 0.3 mm and 0.5 mm.
