SERVICE DIAGNOSISÐMECHANICAL
GENERAL
The reason for a decrease in cooling or heating ef-
ficiency must be understood before attempting repair
or replacement of parts. Determined if the condition
is the air conditioner, the heating system, its compo-
nents or the in the air flow system.
The air conditioning system generally operates at
peak efficiency at normal highway speeds. However,
a slight reduction in A/C performance may be expe-
rienced in congested city driving conditions; espe-
cially when ambient temperatures are high.
When diagnosing a gradual decrease in A/C perfor-
mance, remember to check condition of the condenser
and radiator fins. Air flow blockage of either compo-
nent, caused by dirt, foreign material or insects, will
affect the air conditioning and engine cooling sys-
tems. Vehicles equipped with a protective screen, can
restrict air flow to the radiator and condenser.
During high outside operating temperatures, a
slight increase in engine coolant temperature will oc-
cur when the air conditioner is operating.
A/C PERFORMANCE TEST
The pressure developed on the high side and low
side of the compressor indicates whether the system
is operating properly.
WARNING: USE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN THE
ENGINE IS OPERATING. DO NOT STAND IN A DI-
RECT LINE WITH THE FAN. DO NOT PUT YOUR
HANDS NEAR THE PULLEYS, BELTS OR FAN. DO
NOT WEAR LOOSE CLOTHING.
WARNING: WEAR SAFETY GOGGLES WHEN SER-
VICING THE REFRIGERATION SYSTEM
(1) Attach an engine tachometer and refrigerant
Pressure Gauge and Manifold Assembly Tool
C-4740-A.
(2) Close both hand valves on the gauge and man-
ifold assembly.
(3) Set both service hand valve stems to the mid-
position.
(4) Engine should be warmed up with doors, win-
dows and hood closed.
(5) Operate air conditioning system with the en-
gine running at 1,000 RPM. Set the controls for max-
imum A/C, temperature control on full cool and
blower switch on high.
(6) Insert a thermometer into center discharge air
outlet and observe the air temperature. The temper-
ature should be approximately 7ÉC (45ÉF) at 27ÉC
(80ÉF) ambient temperature after 5 minutes of oper-
ation.(7) Observe the high and low side pressures. The
evaporator suction pressure should be 207-241 kPag
(30-35 psig). The compressor discharge pressure
should be 1103-1633 kPag (160-235 psig). It should
be noted that high ambient temperature and humid-
ity conditions will cause higher pressures and tem-
perature conditions. If the clutch cycles, take
readings before clutch disengages.
(8) If pressures are abnormal, refer to the Pressure
and Performance Diagnosis Charts.
The following charts have been developed for quick
reference. If the step by step method used is not com-
pletely understood, refer to the correct section of the
Service Manual for more detailed information.
COMPRESSOR VALVE PLATEÐLEAK TESTS
This test can be preformed with the compressor in-
stalled in the vehicle.
Discharge or Suction Valve BreakageÐWhen
compressor is operating at idle speed, compressor
makes a ``clacking'' sound. Preform the Pressure Bal-
ancing Test.
Head Gasket BreakageÐAt idle speed, discharge
pressure does not increase to normal condition and
suction pressure is high. Preform the Pressure Bal-
ancing Test.
Pressure Balancing Test:
(1) Connect manifold gauge set to suction and dis-
charge ports.
(2) Run compressor for 5 minutes at idle speed and
stop.
(3) Measure elapsed time that discharge pressure
is balanced to suction pressure. If less than 2 min-
utes, it is determined that discharge valve or head
gasket is broken.
REFRIGERANT LEAK TEST
External leaks in the system can be located using
an electronic detector.
The electronic leak detector is recommended be-
cause it is light, accurate and most important, does
not expose the user to toxic gas fumes. An electronic
leak detector will locate R-12 leaks as small as 15 ml
(0.5 fluid oz.) per year.
WARNING: DO NOT USE A HALIDE TORCH. THE
HALIDE TORCH REQUIRES AN OPEN FLAME FOR
LEAK DETECTION. WHEN R-12 IS EXPOSED TO AN
OPEN FLAME, IT TURNS INTO PHOSGENE GAS
WHICH IS POISONOUS.
(1) Calibrate the detector as outlined in the manu-
facturer's instructions.
(2) Remove the flexible detector probe from the
case.
(3) Turn the detector control switch ON.

DESCRIPTION
The Climate Control System combines air condi-
tioning, heating and ventilating capabilities for vehi-
cles equipped with air conditioning. Vehicles without
air conditioning perform heating and ventilating
functions without the air conditioning evaporator.
Both systems consist basically of 2 parts:
²Blower and Air Inlet Assembly
²Heater Core and Air Distribution Assembly
These assemblies, initially installed as a single
unit, may be removed separately from under the in-
strument panel as required for service.
HEATER SYSTEM
The heater system is a blend air type. Outside air
is heated and then blended in varying amounts with
cooler outside air to obtain the desired discharge
temperature. A heater coolant valve provides full
flow to the heater core for all heating modes. The
heater coolant valve remains closed for the ventila-
tion mode, allowing discharge air to approach the
outside ambient air temperature.
AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM
The air conditioning system has an evaporator to
cool and dehumidify the incoming outside air prior to
blending with the heated air. The evaporator is in
operation during the A/C mode and also in the de-
frost mode for defogging purposes. The evaporator is
not in operation at ambient temperatures below ap-
proximately -1ÉC (30ÉF). To maintain minimum evap-
orator temperature, a fixed thermostat setting switch
cycles the compressor clutch. The blower is operatingthe heater or air conditioning systems, except the
OFF mode. In this mode (OFF) the blower and the
outside air are shut off.
The cooling unit is mounted on the dash panel and
the cooled air is discharged from the instrument
panel registers. The registers are adjusted to provide
general or localized cooling.
SIGHT GLASS
The sight glass is located on top of the receiver/
drier. The sight glass provides a visual check of the
system refrigerant level. A continuous stream of bub-
bles will appear in the sight glass when the system
charge is low. Bubbles will not appear when the sys-
tem is fully charged.
LOW PRESSURE SWITCH
The low pressure switch disengages the magnetic
clutch if the pressure in the system drops below 193
kPa (28 psi). This will occur with a loss in refriger-
ant or with cold ambient temperature.
HEATER VALVE
The heater valve regulates coolant flow to the
heater core. It requires vacuum to shut off flow to
the heater core.
These vehicles are equipped with a bypass-type
heater water valve. When the heater valve is closed,
coolant flow to the heater core is bypassed back to
the engine. When the heater valve is open, coolant is
directed through the heater core and back to the en-
gine.

DESCRIPTION (HEATING)
A blend-air heating system is used in YJ vehicles.
The blend-air system provides a constant flow of en-
gine coolant through the heater core.
The temperature of heated air entering the passen-
ger compartment is controlled by regulating the
quantity of air flow through the heater core. This is
accomplished by blending a controlled amount of un-
heated air from outside the vehicle with heated air
from the heater core.
HEATER/DEFROSTER OPERATION
The heater core is connected to the engine cooling
system. It operates on the circulation of heated en-
gine coolant through the core and a supply of fresh
air drawn in through the intake grille on the cowl.
Engine coolant flows through the heater core at all
times.
The heater controls are on the heater control panel
(Fig. 1).
The air control lever (Fig. 1) operates a door in the
fresh air intake duct. The door controls the amount
of fresh air flow into the heater housing and core.
When the lever is in the OFF position, the intake
door is closed preventing air flow into the housing.The temperature control lever (Fig. 1) determines
air flow through the heater core. The lever operates
the heater housing blend-air door which controls air
flow through the core.
The blower motor is operated by the control switch
(Fig. 1). The switch provides 3 blower speeds for in-
creased air flow in heat or defrost mode.
HEATING
Maximum air flow and heater output occurs when
the air control lever is in HEAT position and the
temperature control lever is in WARM position. The
blend-air door is closed and all intake air is directed
through the heater core in this operating mode (Fig.
2).
Temperature regulation of the heated air is deter-
mined by position of the temperature control lever.
Moving the control lever from WARM to an in-be-
tween position, opens the blend-air door in the heater
housing. As the door opens, unheated outside air is
drawn into the system and blended with heated air
from the core.
DEFROSTING
The heater housing contains a defroster door to di-
vert heated air to the defroster duct and windshield
outlets (Fig. 2). Defrost air flow is controlled by the
air control lever.
For defroster operation, the air control lever must
be moved to the defrost detent. The detent is identi-
fied by the defrost symbol on the control panel. In
this position, the defroster door in the heater housing
diverts all heated air (from the core) to the defroster
duct windshield outlets.
If the air control lever is moved to any position be-
tween the heat and defrost detents, the defroster door
does not close completely. In this mode, the door re-
mains partially open causing heated air to be divided
equally between the heat and defrost outlets.
