Rear Differential AssemblY
Troubleshooting
Most problems in the unit are to be diagnosed by identifying noises from the gears or bear'ngs'
care should be taken during diagnosis not to confuse differential noises with those from other drivetra'n components'

Front Driveshafts
Removal (cont'd)
Remove the cotter pin from the lower arm ball ioint
castle nut, and remove the nut.
Install a 12 mm hex nut on the ball joint. Make sure
the hex nut is flush with the ball joint pin end, or the
threaded section of the ball joint pin might be dam-
aged by the special tool.
Use the special tool as shown in section '18 to sepa-
rate the ball joint and lower arm, Be caretul not to
damage the ball joint boot, lf necessary, apply pen-
etrating type lubricant to loosen the ball joint,
Pry out the driveshaft assembly with a pry bar, as
shown, to force the set ring at the driveshaft end
past the groove. Be careful not to damage the oil
seals when prying.

12. Pull on the inboard joint, and remove the driveshaft
from the differential case or bearing support as an
assembly. Do not pull on the driveshaft, the inboardjoint may come apart. Pull the driveshaft straight
out to avoid damaging the differential oil seal or the
intermediate shaft outer seal.
Left driveshaft:
Remove the left driveshaft from the bearing suppon
by tapping on the inboard joint of the driveshaft
with a olastic hammer.

Reassembly (cont'd)
Apply power steering fluid to the surface of the spe-
cial tool. Set the new seal rings over the special tool
from the smaller diameter end of the tool. and
expand the seal rings. Install two rings at a time
Jrom each end ofthe sleeve.
Note these items when installing the seal ring:
. Do not over-expand the seal ring. Install the resin
seal rings with care so as not to damage them.
After installation, be sure to contract the seal
rings using the specialtool {sizing tool).
. There are two types of sleeve seal rings: black
and brown. Do not mix the different types of
sleeve seal rings as they are not compatible.
Align the special tool with each groove in the sleeve,
and slide a sleeve seal ring into each groove. After
installation, compress the seal rings with your fin-
gers temporarily.

16.Insert the sleeve into the special tool slowly.
Move the sleeve each direction several times to
make the seal rings snugly fit in the sleeve. Be sure
that the seal rings are not turned up,

18. Apply power steering fluid to the surface of the pin-
ion shaft. Assemble the sleeve over the Dinion shaft
by aligning the locating pin on the inside of the
sleeve with the cutout in the shaft. Then install the
new circlip securely in the pinion shaft groove.
Note these items during reassembly:
. Be caretul not to damage the valve seal ring
when inserting the sleeve.
. Install the circlip with its radiused side facing out.
Apply power steering fluid to the seal ring lip of the
valve oil seal. then install the seal in the valve hous-
ing using a hydraulic press and special tools. Install
the valve oil seal with its grooved side facing the tool.

Wheel Sensor
The wheel sensors are the magnetic contactless type. As the gear pulser teeth rotate past the wheel sensor's magnetic
coil, AC current is generated. The AC frequency changes in accordance with the wheel speed. The ABS control unit detects
the wheel sensor signal frequency and thereby detects the wheel speed

When the wheel speed drops sharply below the vehicle speed, the outlet valve opens momentarily to reduce the caliper
fluid pressure. The pump motor starts at this time. As the wheel speed is restored. the inlet valve opens momentarily to

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]-.
