A/C System Service
Leak Test
Only use service equipment that is U.L.-listed and is cer-
tified to meet the requirements of SAE J2210 to remove
HFC-134a (R-134a) from the air conditioner system.
CAUTION: Exposura to air condition ratrigerant and
lubaicant vapor or mist can irritato oyes. nose and
throat. Avoid br€athing tho sir conditionsr reftigolant
and lubricant vapor or mist.
lf accidental svstem discharge occurs, ventilate work
area before resuming service.
R-134a service equipment or vehicle air conditioner sys-
tems should not be pressure tested or leak tested with
comoressed air.
@ some mixturos ot air and R'13'la have
b.6n shown to b€ combustible at glsvated pressur€s
and can result in firo or sxplo3ion causing iniury or
proporty damage. Ngvar uso compress€d tir to pro33ure

Additional health and satetY information may be ob-
tained from the refrigerant and lubricant manufactures'
1. Connect a R-134a retrigerant Recovery/Recycling/
Charging System to the car. as shown, following
the equipment manufacturer's instructions.
NOTE: Be sure to install the same amount of new
refrigerant oil back into the A/C system before
chargtng.
2. Open high pressure valve to charge the system to
about 98 kPa (1.0 kgf/cm', 14 psi), then close the
supply valve.
3. Check the system for leaks using a R-134a refriger-
ant leak detector with an accuracy of '!4 g {0.5 oz)
per year or better.
4. lf you find leaks that require the system to be
opened (to repair or replace houses, fittings, etc.),
recover the system according to the Recover
Procedure on page 22-22.
5. Aiter checking and repairing leaks, the system must
be evacuated (see System Evacuation gn page 22-
38).

Engine Oil Pressure Switch Test
1. Remove the YEL/RED wile from the engine oil pres-
sure switch.
ENGI'{E OIL PRESSURE SWITCH
Check tor continuitv between the positive torminal
and the engine {gtound) with the ignhion swhch OFF.
a lf there is continuity, go to step 3.
a lf there is no continuity, replace the switch.
Check for continuity again, this time with th€ engine
runnrng.
a lf there is continuity, go to step 4,
a lf there is no continuity, the switch is OK.
Make sure engine oil level is OK, then check engin€
oil pressure (s€e section 8).
a lf engine oil pressure is OK, replace the switch'
a lf engine oil pressure is low, check the sngine oil
pump (see section 8) and, if necessary, replac€ it.

Engine Oil Pressure
Indicator System
Description
NOTE: Reter to page 23-144 tor the circuit diagram otthe engine oil pressure indicator flasher, snd to page
23-148 lor the input test of the flasher circuit.
The low engine oil pressure indicator tight works in twoways. lt will flash continuously following a momentaryloss of oil pressure, or it will go on and stay on with acomplete loss of oil pressure.
When the engine first starts, before oil Dressure risesabove 29.4 kP8 10.3 kgf/cmr, 4.3 psi), current flowsthrough the low engine oil pressure indicator light andthe oil pressure switch to ground. This tests the circuit.
Wilh the engine running, voltage is applied ro the ftash-er circuit of the integrated control unit. With normal oilpressure, the oil pressure switch is open and the low en-gine oil pressure indicator light does not operate. lf theoil pressure switch closes momentarily (more than O.5secondsl, but then opens again, terminal "yEL/RED,'will
sense ground through the switch. The integrated con-trol unit willthen provide and remove ground for th€ lowengine oil pressure indicator light through terminal"YEL/RED". The light will flash on and olf until the igni-tion switch is turned to "OFF".
lf engine oil pressure falls below 29.4 kPa (O.3 kgJ/cmr,4.3 psi) and does not increase, the oil pressure switchwillstsy closed. The low engine oilpressure indicator lightwill go on and stav on.
NOTE; Refer to page 23-122lot the engine oil pressure
switch test.
Lights-on Reminder
System
Description
Chime Test
Remove the dashboard lower cover and knee bolster
{see page 23-70).
Disconnect the 2-P connector t.om the dashboardwire hamess.
Test the chime by connecting battery power to the"A" te.minal and ground to the "B" terminal, andcycling the power on-off repestedly.
lf the chime fails to sound every time power is cy-cled, reDlace it.
NOTE: Refer to page 23-145 tor a diagram of the lights-
on reminder circuit, and to page 23-149 for the input
tests of the circuit.
When the ignition key is turned to OFF 8nd removed. withthe lights on, voltage is apptied to the reminder circuitin the integrat€d control unit. When you open the driver,sdoor, the circuit senses ground through the closed doorswitch.
With voltage at the "H" terminal, ground at the"GRN/BLU2" terminal and no voltage at the ,,F,' termi-nal, the chime sounds to remind the driver to turn oJf thelights.
