COMPRESSOR DRIVE BELT
INSPECTION
Check compressor drive belt (6) for wear and cracks, and
replace as required.
Check compressor drive belt (6) tension by measuring how
much it deflects when pushed at intermediate point between
compressor pulley (1) and tension pulley (2) with about 100
N (10 kg) force after crankshaft pulley 1 rotating.
If belt tension is without specification, adjust belt tension
referring to below procedures.
Compressor drive belt tension
“a” : 3 – 5 mm (0.12 – 0.20 in.)
New compressor drive belt tension
“a” : 2 – 4 mm (0.08 – 0.16 in.)
ADJUSTMENT
1) Loosen tension pulley nut (3).
2) Adjust belt tension by tighten or loosen tension pulley adjust-
ing bolt (4).
3) Tighten tension pulley nut (3).
4) Turn the crank pulley (5) 1 revolution, then check belt ten-
sion.
REPLACEMENT
1) Loosen tension pulley nut (3).
2) Loosen belt tension by loosen tension pulley adjusting bolt
(4).
3) Remove compressor drive belt (6).
4) Install new compressor drive belt.
5) Adjust belt tension referring to above procedure.

A/C SYSTEM INSPECTION OF ECM AND ITS
CIRCUITS
ECM and its circuits can be checked at ECM wiring couplers by
measuring voltage.
VOLTAGE CHECK
1) Remove ECM from vehicle by referring to “ECM (PCM)
REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION” in Section 6E1.
2) Connect ECM couplers (1) to ECM (2).
3) Check voltage at each terminal of couplers connected.CAUTION:
ECM cannot be checked by itself. It is strictly prohibited
to connect voltmeter or ohmmeter to ECM with couplers
disconnected from it.
NOTE:
As each terminal voltage is affected by the battery volt-
age, confirm that it is 11 V or more when ignition switch
is ON position.
