(2) Perform the HVAC Control Calibration Diag-
nostic and Cooldown test. Repeating the test is nec-
essary to clear the fault codes.
BLOWER MOTOR AND WHEEL ASSEMBLY

REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION (Continued)

(3) Locate and remove the wire connector from the
blower resistor block. Block is located at the back of
the engine compartment on the passenger side of the
vehicle under the wiper module (Fig. 19).
NOTE: It may not necessary to remove the wiper
module to access the resistor block.
(4) Using a long flad blade screwdriver, gently
push in on drivers side of resistor. Be careful to catch
the inner release tang and gently pry outward (Fig.
20).
WARNING: THE RESISTOR BLOCK MAY BE HOT.
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO SERVICE THE RESISTOR
BLOCK IF THE SYSTEM HAS BEEN RUNNING
RECENTLY. LET THE SYSTEM COOL DOWN
BEFORE REPAIRS ARE INITIATED.
(5) Remove resistor block by inserting a flat blade
pry tool on the side of the resistor block and pushing
inward. Two guide lines are shown on the right hand
edge of the resistor block to help guide the bladeposition. This will release the clips on the side of the
resistor block. Pull resistor block out.
INSTALLATION
For installation, reverse the above procedures.
Make sure the ªTOPº lettering is on the top of the
resistor. The coils on the Resistor Block should not be
contacting one another. Before installation, gently
separate the coils (with fingers only) if one coil is
contacting another.
BLOWER MOTOR WHEEL
The blower motor wheel is not serviced separately.
If the wheel needs to be replaced it is serviced as an
assembly of the blower motor. For service procedure
information, refer to Blower Motor Replacement in
this group.

REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION (Continued)

CAUTION: The clutch pulley and the front plate
were mated at the factory by a burnishing opera-
tion. No attempt should be made to separately
replace either part. This will result in clutch slip-
page due to insufficient contact area.
INSTALLATION
(1) Align pin in back of field coil with hole in com-
pressor end housing, and position field coil into place.
Make sure that lead wires are properly routed, and
fasten with the wire clip screw.
(2) Install field coil retaining snap ring with snap
ring pliers. The bevel side of the snap ring facing
outward. Also both snap ring eyelets must be to the
right or left of the pin on compressor. Press snap ring
to make sure it is properly seated in the groove.
CAUTION: If snap ring is not fully seated it will
vibrate out, resulting in a clutch failure and severe
damage to the front face of the compressor.
(3) Install pulley assembly to compressor. If neces-
sary, tap gently with a block of wood on the friction
surface (Fig. 29).
CAUTION: Do not mar the pulley frictional surface.
(4) Install pulley assembly retaining snap ring
(bevel side outward) with snap ring pliers. Press the
snap ring to make sure it is properly seated in the
groove.
(5) If the original front plate assembly and pulley
assembly are to be reused, the old shim(s) can beused. If not, place a trial stack of shims, 1 mm (0.040
in.) thick, on the shaft against the shoulder.
(6) Install front plate assembly onto shaft.
(7) With the front plate assembly tight against the
shim(s), measure the air gap between front plate and
pulley face with feeler gauges. The air gap should be
between 0.5 and 0.9 mm (.020 and .035 inch) If
proper air gap is not obtained, add or subtract shims
until desired air gap is obtained.
(8) Install compressor shaft bolt. Tighten to
17.562 N´m (155620 in. lbs.).
NOTE: Shims may compress after tightening shaft
nut. Check air gap in four or more places to verify if
air gap is still correct. Spin pulley for final check.
CLUTCH BREAK-IN
After a new clutch has been installed, check the
voltage and amperage to the clutch (determine it to
be satisfactory). Then cycle the A/C clutch approxi-
mately 20 times (5 sec. on and 5 sec. off). For this
procedure, set the system to the A/C mode, using
high blower, and engine rpm at 1500-2000. This pro-
cedure (burnishing) will seat the opposing friction
surfaces and provide a higher clutch torque capabil-
ity.
CONDENSER ASSEMBLY
WARNING: THE REFRIGERATION SYSTEM MUST
BE COMPLETELY EMPTY BEFORE PROCEEDING
WITH THIS OPERATION.
NOTE: Special effort must be used to keep all
R-134a system components moisture-free. Moisture
in the oil is very difficult to remove and will cause a
reliability problem with the compressor.
REMOVAL
(1) Recover A/C system refrigerant.
(2) Remove liquid line at filter-drier (Fig. 30).
(3) Remove (2) bolts attaching filter-drier to radia-
tor module (Fig. 31).
(4) Remove upper radiator crossmember.
(5) Tilt radiator rearward.
(6) Remove upper discharge line at condenser (Fig.
32).
(7) Through fascia, remove lower liquid line from
filter-drier.
(8) Remove (2) lower condenser mounting bolts.
(9) Remove (2) upper mounting bolts.
(10) Remove condenser from vehicle (Fig. 33).

GENERAL INFORMATION
INTRODUCTION
For proper operation of the rear heating A/C sys-
tem, refer to Owner's Manual supplied with the vehi-
cle.
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
REAR BLOWER RESISTOR BLOCK
The rear blower motor resistor is not serviceable
separately. The resistor is integral to the blower
motor. If resistor is faulty, it is necessary to replace
the complete blower motor.
REAR HEATER AND A/C LINES
The rear heater and A/C lines are all serviced as
individual pieces. When disconnecting any line orblock ensure that the area around it is clean of any
contaminations that can get in to the system (Fig. 1),
(Fig. 2), (Fig. 4), (Fig. 3) and (Fig. 5).
SYSTEM OPERATION
The auxiliary rear heating-air/conditioning unit is
located in the right rear quarter panel. The rear
heater A/C control operates in conjunction with the
front heater A/C control. A four position two speed
blower (override) switch is located on the front
Heater A/C control panel (Fig. 6). The operator can
use the rear heater A/C blower switch to operate the
blower, regardless of the rear control setting. In the
OFF position, the rear control will not function. In
the ON (RR) position, the rear control will function
normally providing three speeds (Fig. 7). The mode
setting is controlled by the front A/C control panel.
Fig. 1 Rear Heater and A/C Lines
NSHEATING AND AIR CONDITIONING 24 - 41

Air from inside the vehicle is drawn into the air
intake grille in the right rear quarter trim panel. The
air enters the blower and is pushed through the
heater core and A/C evaporator coil. The air direc-
tion, floor or overhead, is determined by the position
of the driver's temperature control lever on the front
HVAC system control. If the temperature control
lever is below 20% heat, the auxiliary HVAC system
airflow will come from the overhead air outlets. In
between 20% and 80%, the airflow will remain in the
last position selected. In other words, if the driver
started out in full heat and then adjusted their tem-
perature lever to 30% heat as they became comfort-
able, the rear air would come out the floor outlets the
whole time.
