PRECAUTIONS FOR REPLACEMENT OR REPAIR OF
AIR CONDITIONING PARTS
There are certain procedure, practices and precautions
that should be followed when servicing air conditioning
systems:
·Keep your work area clean.
·Always wear safety goggle and protective gloves
when working on refrigerant systems.
·Beware of the danger of carbon monoxide fumes
caused by running the engine.
·Beware of discharged refrigerant in enclosed or
improperly ventilated garages.
·Always disconnect the negative battery cable and
discharge and recover the refrigerant whenever
repairing the air conditioning system.
·When discharging and recovering the refrigerant, do
not allow refrigerant to discharge too fast; it will draw
compressor oil out of the system.
·Keep moisture and contaminants out of the system.
When disconnecting or removing any lines or parts,
use plugs or caps to close the fittings immediately.
Never remove the caps or plugs until the lines or
parts are reconnected or installed.
·When disconnecting or reconnecting the lines, use
two wrenches to support the line fitting, to prevent
from twisting or other damage.
·Always install new O-rings whenever a connection is
disassembled.
·Before connecting any hoses or lines, apply new
specified compressor oil to the O-rings.
·When removing and replacing any parts which
require discharging the refrigerant circuit, the
operations described in this section must be
performed in the following sequence:

COMPRESSOR OVERHAUL 1D Ð 3
solvent, and dried with dry air. Use only lint free
cloths to wipe parts.
The operations described below are based on
bench overhaul with compressor removed from the
car, except as noted. They have been prepared in
order of accessibility of the components. When the
compressor is removed from the car for servicing,
the oil remaining in the compressor should be
discarded and new refrigerant oil added to the
compressor.
Magnetic clutch assembly repair procedures require
that the system be discharged of refrigerant. (Refer
to Section 1B for ÒREFRIGERANT RECOVERYÓ.)
Compressor malfunction will appear in one of four
ways: noise, seizure, leakage or low discharge
pressure. Resonant compressor noises are not
cause for alarm; however, irregular noise or rattles
may indicate broken parts or excessive clearances
due to wear. To check seizure, de-energize the
magnetic clutch and check to see if the drive plate
can be rotated. If rotation is impossible, the
compressor is seized. Low discharge pressure may
be due to a faulty internal seal of the compressor,
or a restriction in the compressor. Low discharge
pressure may also be due to an insufficient
refrigerant charge or a restriction elsewhere in the
system. These possibilities should be checked prior
to servicing the compressor. If the compressor is
inoperative, but is not seized, check to see if current
is being supplied to the magnetic clutch coil
terminals.
The compressor has vanes built into a rotor which
is mounted on a shaft.
When the shaft rotates, the vanes built into the
cylinder block assembly are opened by centrifugal
force.
This changes the volume of the space formed by
the rotor and cylinder, resulting in the intake and
compression of the refrigerant gas. The discharge
valve and the valve stopper, which protects the
discharge valve, are built into the cylinder block
assembly. There is no suction valve but a shaft seal
is installed between the shaft and head; a trigger
valve, which applies back pressure to the vanes, is
installed in the cylinder block and a refrigerant gas
temperature sensor is installed in the front head.
The specified quantity of compressor oil is
contained in the compressor to lubricate the various
parts using the refrigerant gas discharge pressure.
6VD1 engine is equipped with an invariable
capacity five-vane rotary compressor (DKV-14D
Type).
The compressor sucks and compresses refrigerant
by the rotation of the vane installed to the shaft,
and always discharges a fixed amount of refrigerant
independent of the load of refrigerant.The thermo sensor is installed to the front head of
the compressor to protect it by stopping its
operation when the refrigerant gas is insufficient or
when the temperature get abnormally high.
·OFF ..... 160 ±5¡C (320.0 ±9.0¡F)
·ON ..... 135 ±5¡C (275.0 ±9.0¡F)
4JG2 Engine are provided with a swash plate type
compressor (DKS-15CH Type)
Swash plate compressors have a swash (slanted)
plate mounted on the shaft. When the shaft turns,
the rotation of the swash plate is converted to
reciprocating piston motion which sucks in and
compresses the refrigerant gas.
Shaft seal (Lip type) is installed between the valve
plate and shaft & cylinder head to prevent
refrigerant gas leaks. A specified amount of
compressor oil is contained in the oil pan.
This oil is supplied to the cylinders, bearings, etc.,
by an oil pump which is connected to the swash
plate shaft.
With some compressors the differential between
the intake pressure and discharge pressure
generated while the compressor is operating is
used for lubrication instead of an oil pump.
Three pistons are arranged at 120g intervals around
the center of the swash plate shaft. These pistons
are connected to the ends of the swash plate
through shoe disks and balls.
The rotation of the swash plate causes
reciprocating movement of the piston inside the
cylinders, with each piston operating as two
cylinders. Because of that, the compressor operates
as though it has 6 cylinders.
The specified amount of the compressors oil is
150cc (4.2 Imp fl oz).
Also, compressor oil to be used varies according to
the compressor model. Be sure to avoid mixing two
or more different types of oil.
If the wrong oil is used, lubrication will be poor and
the compressor will seize or malfunction.

COMPRESSOR OVERHAUL 1D Ð 5
Checking and Adjusting for Compressor
Replacement
150cc (4.2 Imp fl oz) of oil is charged in compressor
(service parts). So it is necessary to drain the proper
amount of oil from the new compressor.
1) Perform oil return operation.
2) Discharge refrigerant and remove the
compressor.
3) Drain the compressor oil and measure the
extracted oil.
4) Check the compressor oil for contamination.
5) Adjust oil level as required.

6) Evacuate, charge and perform oil return

7) Check system operation.
CONTAMINATION OF COMPRESSOR OIL
Unlike engine oil, no cleaning agent is added to the
compressor oil. Even if the compressor runs for a
long period of time (approximately 1 season), the
oil never becomes contaminated as long as there is
nothing wrong with the compressor or its method
of use.
Inspect the extracted oil for any of the following
conditions:
·The capacity of the oil has increased.
·The oil has changed color to red.
·Foreign substances, metal powder, etc., are
present in the oil.
If any of these conditions exists, compressor oil is
contaminated. Whenever contaminated
compressor oil is discovered, the receiver/drier
must be replaced.
OIL RETURN OPERATION
There is close affinity between the oil and the
refrigerant. During normal operation, part of the oil
recirculates with the refrigerant in the system.
When checking the amount of oil in the system, or
replacing any component of the system, the
compressor must be run in advance for oil return
operation. The procedure is as follows:
1) Open the all doors and engine hood.
2) Start the engine and A/C switch is ÒONÓ and
Set the fan control knob at its highest position.
3) Run the compressor for more than 20 minutes
between 800 and 1,000 rpm in order to operate
the system.
4) Stop the engine.
REPLACEMENT OF COMPONENT PARTS
When replacing system component parts, supply
the following amount of oil to the component parts
to be installed.

the following amount of oil to the component parts to be
installed.
Compressor Leak Testing (External and
Internal)
Bench-Check Procedure
1. Install test plate J-39893 on rear head of compressor.
2. Using Refrigerant Recovery System, attach center
hose of manifold gage set on charging station to a
refrigerant drum standing in an upright drum.
3. Connect charging station high and low pressure
lines to corresponding fittings on test plate J-39893.
Suction port (low-side) of compressor has large
internal opening. Discharge port (high-side) has
smaller internal opening into compressor and
deeper recess.
4. Open low pressure control, high pressure control
and refrigerant control on charging station to allow
refrigerant vapor to flow into compressor.
5. Using a leak detector, check for leaks at pressure
relief valve, rear head switch location, compressor
front and rear head seals, center cylinder seal,
through bolt head gaskets and compressor shaft
seal. After checking, shut off low pressure control
and high-pressure control on charging station.
6. If an external leak is present, perform the necessary
corrective measures and recheck for leaks to make
certain the leak has been connected.
7. Recover the refrigerant.
8. Disconnect both hoses from the test plate J-39893.
9. Add 90 ml (3 oz.) new PAG lubricant to the
compressor assembly. Rotate the complete
compressor assembly (not the crankshaft or drive
plate hub) slowly several turns to distribute oil to all
cylinder and piston areas.
10. Install a M9 ´1.25 threaded nut on the compressor
crankshaft if the drive plate and clutch assembly are
not installed.
11. Using a box-end wrench or socket and handle,
rotate the compressor crankshaft or clutch drive
plate on the crankshaft several turns to insure
piston assembly to cylinder wall lubrication.
12. Using Refrigerant Recovery System, connect the
charging station high-pressure line to the test plate
J-39893 high-side connector.
13. Using Refrigerant Recovery System, connect the
charging station low-pressure line to the low
pressure port of the test plate J-39893. Oil will drain
out of the compressor suction port if the compressor
is positioned with the suction port downward. (Component parts to be (Amount of Oil)
