INSPECTION
1) Connect battery positive (+) cable to terminal “b” and battery
negative (–) cable to terminal “c” as shown.
2) Using ohmmeter, check continuity between terminal “a” and
terminal “b” at specified temperature as shown.
Rear A/C evaporator temperature controller specification :
“A” : Approximately 3.5 °C (38.3 °F)
“B” : Approximately 5.0 °C (41 °F)
INSTALLATION
Reverse removal procedure to install rear A/C evaporator temper-
ature controller noting the following instruction.
When the rear A/C evaporator thermistor (temperature sen-
sor) removed, it should be reinstalled in original position.
Refrigerant Pipes and Hoses
INSPECTION
Use a leak tester to check hoses and pipes for any gas leakage.
Check each hose or pipe clamp for tightness. Retighten or replace loose clamp as required, if any.
REMOVAL
1) Recover refrigerant by using recovery and recycling equipment. Be sure to follow the instruction manual for
the equipment.
The amount of compressor oil removed must be measured and the same amount must be added to the sys-
tem when reinstalling.
2) Replace defective hose or pipe.
INSTALLATION
Reverse removal procedure to install refrigerant line noting the following instruction.
Evacuate and charge system. Refer to “EVACUATING” and “CHARGING” in this section.
CAUTION:
As soon as the above hose or pipe is disconnected, cap its opened fitting to prevent moisture and
dust from entering.
NOTE:
Remove EVAP canister and fuel tank cover, if necessary

6) Install circlip (1) by using snap ring plier.
7) Apply grease to entire surface of cage.
Use joint grease in tube included in spare part.
8) Insert cage into outer race and fit circlip (1) into groove of
outer race.
9) Apply grease in tube included in spare part to inside of outer
race, and fit boot to outer race.
Fill up inside of boot with joint grease.
“A” : Joint Grease
(about 90 - 100 g (3.2 - 3.5 oz) (Black))
10) Fitting boot to outer race, adjust so that measurements “b”
and “c” become as shown in the figure.
Differential side (RH) boot installation position
(Length “b”) : 196.8 - 206.8 mm (7.75 - 8.14 in.)
Differential side (LH) boot installation position
(Length “c”) : 127.5 - 137.5 mm (5.02 - 5.41 in.)
11) Before fixing boot band, insert screwdriver into boot on joint
side and allow air to enter boot so that air pressure in boot
becomes the same as atmospheric pressure.
12) Clamp boot band. Check boots for distortion or dent.
CAUTION:
Position opening of circlip “a” so that it will not be lined
up with a ball.

For vehicles equipped with Supplemental Restraint (Air Bag) System:
Service on and around the air bag system components or wiring must be performed only by an
authorized SUZUKI dealer. Refer to “Air Bag System Components and Wiring Location View” under
“General Description” in air bag system section in order to confirm whether you are performing ser-
vice on or near the air bag system components or wiring. Please observe all WARNINGS and “Ser-
vice Precautions” under “On-Vehicle Service” in air bag system section before performing service
on or around the air bag system components or wiring. Failure to follow WARNINGS could result in
unintentional activation of the system or could render the system inoperative. Either of these two
conditions may result in severe injury.
Technical service work must be started at least 90 seconds after the ignition switch is turned to the
“LOCK” position and the negative cable is disconnected from the battery. Otherwise, the system
may be activated by reserve energy in the Sensing and Diagnostic Module (SDM).
NOTE:
For the descriptions (items) not found in this section, refer to Section 5E1 of the Service Manual
mentioned in the FOREWORD of this manual.
All brake fasteners are important attaching parts in that they could affect the performance of vital
parts and systems, and/or could result in major repair expense. They must be replaced with one of
same part number or with an equivalent part if replacement becomes necessary. Do not use a
replacement part of lesser quality or substitute design. Torque values must be used as specified
during reassembly to assure proper retention of all parts. There is to be no welding as it may result
in extensive damage and weakening of the metal.
