Compressor
Replacement
lf the compressor is marginally operable. run the
engine at idie speed, and let the air conditioner
work for a few minutes. then shut the engine off.
Disconnect the negative cable from the battery.
Recover the refrigerant with a recovery/recycling/
charging station (see page 22-59).
Disconnect the condenser fan connector. Remove
the compressor clutch connector and the wire har-
ness clip from the condenser fan shroud, then dis-
connect the compressor clutch connector. Remove
the mounting bolts and the condenser fan shroud,

10. Check the idler pulley bearing for play and drag,
and replace it with a new one if it's noisy or has
excessive play or drag.
lnstall in the reverse order of removal. Make note of
the following items,
. lf you're installing a new compressor, drain all the
reJrigerant oil from the removed compressor, and
measure its volume. Subtract the volume of
drained oil trom 130 m/ 14 U3 fl'o2,4.6 lmp'oz);
the result is the amount of oil you should drain
lrom the new compressor (through the suction fit-
trngl.
. Replace the O-rings with new ones at each fit-
ting, and apply a thin coat o{ refrigerant oil
before installing them. Be sure to use the right
O-rings for HFC-134a (R-134a) to avoid leakage.
. Use refrigerant oil (SP-10) for R-134a KEIHIN spi-
ral type compressors only.
. To avoid contamination, do not return the oil to
the container once dispensed, and never mix it
with other refrigerant oils.
. lmmediately after using the oil, replace the cap
on the container. and seal it to avoid moisture
aDsorprlon.
. Do not spill the refrigerant oil on the vehicle; it
may damage the paint; if the retrigerant oil con-
tacts the Daint, wash it off immediately.
. Adjust the Ay'C compr'essor b€lt (see psge 22-69)
and the power steering pump belt {see section
17t.
. Charge the system (see page 22-611, and test its
performance (see page 22-56]-.

A/C Compressor Belt
Adjustment
Detlection Method
1. Apply a force of 98 N (10 kgf, 22 lbfl, and measure
the deflection between the A,/C comDressor and the
crankshaft pulley.
A/C Compressor Eelt
Used Beh: 7.5 - 10.5 mm (0.30 - 0.41 inl
New Belt: 5.0 - 7.0 mm (0.20 - 0.28 in)
Note these items when adjusting belt tension:
. lf there are cracks or any damage evident on the
belt, replace it with a new one.
. "Used belt" means a belt which has been used
for five minutes or more.
. "New belt" means a belt which has been used
for less than five minutes.
Loosen the pivot bolt of the idler pulley bracket and
the locknut ofthe adjusting bolt.
Turn the adjusting bolt to get proper belt tension,
Retighten the pivot bolt of the idler pulley bracket and
the locknut ofthe adiusting bolt.
Recheck the deflection of the A,/C compressor belt,
Tension Gauge Method
1. Attach the special tool to the Ay'C compressor belt as
shown below, and measure the tension of the belt.
A/C Comoressor Belt
Used Belt; 390 - 540 N (40 - 55 kgf, 88 - 120 lbtl
New Belt: 740 - 880 N (75 - 90 kgf, 170 - 200 lbt)
Note these items when adjusting belt tension:
. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for the
belt tension gauge.
. lf there are cracks or any damage evident on the
belt, replace it with a new one.
. "Used belt" means a belt which has been used
for five minutes or more.
. "New belt" means a belt which has been used
for less than five minutes.

Install in the reverse order of removal. Make note of
the following items.
. lf you're installing a new condenser, add refriger-
ant oil (sP-10) (see page 22-54]..
o Replace the O-rings with new ones at each fit-
ting, and apply a thin coat of refrigerant oil
before installing them. Be sure to use the right
O-rings for HFC-134a (R-134a) to avoid leakage.
. Be careful not to damage the radiator and con-
denser fins when installing the condenser.
. Be sure to install the lower mount cushions of
condenser securely into the holes,
. Charge the system (see page 22-61), and test its
performance (see page 22-56).

Troubleshooting
Tips and Precautions
Bef ore Troubleshootin g
. Check applicable fuses in the appropriate fuse/relay
box.
. Check the battery for damage, state of charge, and
clean. and tight connections.
. Check the alternator belt tension.
CAUTION:
. Do not quick-charge a battery unless the battery
ground cable has been disconnected, otherwise you
will damage the alternator diodes.
. Do not attempt to crank thc engins wilh the battery
ground cable loosely connected or you will severely
damage the wiring.
Handling Connestors
. Make sure the connectors are clean and have no loose
wire terminals,
. N4ake sure multiple cavity connectors are packed with
grease (except water-tight connectors).
. All connectors have push-down release type locks.
Some connectors have a clip on their side used to
attach them to a mount bracket on the body or on
another component. This clip has a pull type lock.
Some mounted connectors cannot be disconnected
unless you first release the lock and remove the con-
nector from its mount bracket.

LOCKING TAB
CONNECTORBRACKET
Never try to disconnect connectors by pulling on
their wires; pull on the connector halves instead.
Alwavs reinstall olastic covers.
Before connecting connectors, make sure the termi-
nals are in place and not bent.
. Check for loose retainers and rubber seals.
RETAINER
The backs of some connectors are oacked with
grease. Add grease if necessary. lf the grease is con
taminated. reolace it.

Handling Wires and Harnesges
. Secure wires and wire harnesses to the frame with
their respective wire ties at the designated locations.
. Remove clips carefully; don't damage their locks.
Slip pliers under the clip base and through the hole at
an angle, then squeeze the expansion tabs to release the
clrD.
After installing harness clips, make sure the harness
doesn't interfere with any moving pans.
Keep wire harnesses away from exhaust pipes and
other hot parts, trom sharp edges of brackets and
holes. and from exoos€d screws and bolts.

T€sting and Repairs
. Do not use wires or harnesses with broken insulation.
Replace them or repair them by wrapping the break
with electricaltape.
. After installing parts, make sure that no wires are
pinched under them.
. When using electrical test equipment, follow the
manufacturer's instructions and those described in
this manual.
. lf possible, insert the probe of the tester from the
wire side (except waterproof connector).
. Seat grommets in their grooves properly.
. Use a probe with a tapered tip.
Refer to the instructions in the Honda Terminal Kit for
identification and replacement of connector termi-
nals.
