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.

Remove the bolts. and disconnect the discharge line
and the condenser line from the condenser.
NOTE: Plug or cap the lines immediately after dis-

Remove the two mounting bolts, then lift out the
condenser as shown.
NOTE: Do not damage the radiator and condenser
fins when removing the condenser.

Install in the reverse order of removal. and:
. if you're installing a new condenser, add refriger-
ant oil (ND-OIL 8: P/N 38899 - PR7 - A01) (see
page 22-21t,.
. replace the O-rings with new ones at each fitting,
and apply a thin coat of refrigerant oil {ND-OIL 8:
P/N 38899 - PR7 - A01) before installing them.
NOTE: Be sure to use the right O-rings for HFC-
134a (R-134a) to avoid leakage.
a do not damage the radiator and condenser fins
when installing the condenser,
. be sure to install the condenser mount cushions
securely into the holes.
. charge the system (see page 22-39) and test its
performance (see page 22 24!.
