SYSTEM
HINT:
Evacuate air from refrigeration system.
Charge system with refrigerant and inspect for leakage of refrig-
erant.
Specified amount:
850 ± 50 g (29.98 ± 1.76 oz.)
2. REMOVE PRESSURE SWITCH
(a) Disconnect the connector.
(b) Remove the pressure switch from the liquid tube. Torque: 10 N·m (100 kgf·cm, 7 ft·lbf)
HINT:

11. INSPECT ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE RE-
CEIVER GAUGE OPERATION
(a) Disconnect the connector from the sender gauge.
(b) Turn the ignition switch ON, and check that the receiver
gauge needle indicates COOL.
(c) Ground terminal on the wire harness side connector through a 3.4 W test bulb.
(d) Turn the ignition switch ON, and check that the bulb lights up and the receiver gauge needle moves to the hot side.
If operation is as specified, replace the sender gauge. Then re-
check the system.
If operation is not as specified, measure the receiver gauge re-
sistance.
12. INSPECT ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE RE-
CEIVER GAUGE RESISTANCE
Measure the resistance between terminals.
Between terminalsResistance (Ω )
A − B71 − 79
A − C117 − 141
B − C185 − 215
HINT:
Connect the test leads so that the current from the ohmmeter
can flow according to the above order. This circuit include the
diode.
If resistance value is not as specified, replace the receiver
gauge.
13. INSPECT OIL PRESSURE RECEIVER GAUGE OP-
ERATION
(a) Disconnect the connector from the sender gauge.
(b) Turn the ignition switch ON, and check that the receiver
gauge needle indicates LOW.
