TURES ARE POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS, AND MAY
RESULT IN FIRE OR EXPLOSION CAUSING INJURY
OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.
CAUTION - A/C PLUMBING
CAUTION: Liquid refrigerant is corrosive to metal
surfaces. Follow the operating instructions supplied
with the service equipment being used.
CAUTION: Never add R-12 to a refrigerant system
designed to use R-134a. Damage to the system will
result.
CAUTION: R-12 refrigerant oil must not be mixed
with R-134a refrigerant oil. They are not compatible.
CAUTION: Do not use R-12 equipment or parts on
the R-134a system. Damage to the system will
result. All parts, tools, and equipment must be
designed for R-134a refrigerant.
CAUTION: Do not discharge refrigerant into the
atmosphere. Use an R-134a refrigerant recovery/re-
cycling device that meets SAE Standard J2210.
CAUTION: The refrigerant must be recovered com-
pletely from the system before opening any fitting
or connection. Open the fittings with caution, even
after the system has been discharged. If any pres-
sure is noticed as a fitting is loosened, tighten the
fitting and recover the refrigerant from the system
again.
CAUTION: The refrigerant system must always be
evacuated before charging.

CAUTION: Do not overcharge the refrigerant sys-
tem. This will cause excessive compressor head
pressure and can cause noise and system failure.
CAUTION: Do not open the refrigerant system or
remove the sealing caps from a replacement com-
ponent until it is to be installed. This will prevent
contamination in the system.
CAUTION: Before disconnecting a component,
clean the outside of the fittings thoroughly to pre-
vent contamination from entering the refrigerant
system.
CAUTION: When it is necessary to open the refrig-
erant system, have everything needed to service
the system ready. Immediately after disconnecting a
component from the refrigerant system, seal the
open fittings with a cap or plug to prevent the
entrance of dirt and moisture. The refrigerant sys-
tem should not be left open to the atmosphere any
longer than necessary.
CAUTION: Before connecting an open refrigerant
fitting, always install a new seal or gasket. All fit-
tings with O-rings need to be coated with refriger-
ant oil before installation. Use only O-rings that are
the correct size and approved for use with R-134a
refrigerant. Failure to do so may result in a leak.
Coat the fitting and seal with clean refrigerant oil
before connecting. Unified plumbing connections
with gaskets cannot be serviced with O-rings. The
gaskets are not reusable and new gaskets do not
require lubrication before installing.
CAUTION: When installing a refrigerant line, avoid
sharp bends that may restrict refrigerant flow. A
good rule for the flexible hose refrigerant lines is to
keep the radius of all bends at least ten times the
diameter of the hose. Sharp bends will reduce the
flow of refrigerant.
CAUTION: Position the refrigerant lines away from
exhaust system components or any sharp edges,
which may damage the line. The flexible hose lines
should be routed so they are at least 80 millimeters
(3 inches) from the exhaust manifold. Inspect all
flexible refrigerant system hose lines at least once
a year to make sure they are in good condition and
properly routed.CAUTION: High pressures are produced in the
refrigerant system when it is operating. Extreme
care must be exercised to make sure that all refrig-
erant system connections are pressure tight.
CAUTION: Tighten refrigerant fittings only to the
specified torque. The aluminum fittings used in the
refrigerant system will not tolerate overtightening.
CAUTION: When disconnecting a refrigerant fitting,
use a wrench on both halves of the fitting. This will
prevent twisting of the refrigerant lines or tubes.
CAUTION: Refrigerant oil will absorb moisture from
the atmosphere if left uncapped. Do not open a
container of refrigerant oil until you are ready to
use it. Replace the cap on the oil container immedi-
ately after using. Store refrigerant oil only in a
clean, airtight, and moisture-free container.
CAUTION: All tools, including the refrigerant recy-
cling equipment, the manifold gauge set, and test
hoses should be kept clean and dry. Keep the work
area clean. Contamination of the refrigerant system
through careless work habits must be avoided. The
refrigerant system will remain chemically stable as
long as pure, moisture-free R-134a refrigerant and
refrigerant oil is used. Dirt, moisture, or air can
upset this chemical stability. Operational troubles
or serious damage can occur if foreign material is
introduced to the refrigerant system.
COMPRESSOR
DESCRIPTION
The compressor used on this vehicle can be one of
two models, depending upon the air conditioning sys-
tem in the vehicle. All vehicles use the Nippondenso
10S20H compressor. This compressor use an alumi-
num swash plate, teflon coated pistons and alumi-
num sleeveless cylinder walls. This compressor
includes an integral high pressure relief valve. The
compressor is secured low in the right front corner of
the engine compartment to a mounting bracket on
the cylinder block (2.4L engine), or directly to the cyl-
inder block (3.3L and 3.8L engines).is integral to the
compressor. This compressor cannot be repaired. If
faulty or damaged, the entire compressor must be
replaced. The compressor clutch, pulley, and clutch
coil are available for service replacement.

OPERATION
The compressor is driven by the engine through an
electric clutch, drive pulley and belt arrangement.
The compressor is lubricated by refrigerant oil that is
circulated throughout the refrigerant system with the
refrigerant. The compressor draws in low-pressure
refrigerant vapor from the evaporator through its
suction port. It then compresses the refrigerant into
a high-pressure, high-temperature refrigerant vapor.
The compressor pumps high-pressure refrigerant
vapor to the condenser through the compressor dis-
charge port. The mechanical high pressure relief
valve is designed to vent refrigerant from the system
to protect against damage to the compressor or other
system components, caused by condenser air flow
restrictions or an overcharge of refrigerant. The valve
only vents enough refrigerant to reduce the system
pressure, then re-seats itself. The valve opens at a
discharge pressure of 3445 to 4135 kPA (500 to 600
psi) or above, and closes when a minimum discharge
pressure of 2756 kPa (400 psi) is reached.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - COMPRESSOR
NOISE
Excessive noise while the air conditioning compres-
sor is operating can be caused by loose compressor
mounts, a loose compressor clutch, or high operating
pressures in the refrigerant system. Verify compres-
sor drive belt condition, proper compressor mounting,
correct refrigerant charge level, and compressor head
pressure before compressor repair is performed.
With the close tolerances within the compressor, it
is possible to experience a temporary lockup. The
longer the compressor is inactive, the more likely the
condition is to occur. This condition is the result of
normal refrigerant migration within the refrigerant
system caused by ambient temperature changes. The
refrigerant migration may wash the refrigerant oil
out of the compressor.
NOTE: Prior to a vehicle being removed from ser-
vice or stored for more than two weeks, the com-
pressor should be operated to ensure adequate
refrigerant oil distribution throughout the system
components. Turn on the air conditioner for a min-
imum of five minutes with outside air and the high-
est blower speed selected.
BELT NOISE
If the compressor drive belt slips at initial start-up,
it does not necessarily mean the compressor has
failed. The following procedure can be used to iden-
tify a compressor drive belt noise problem.
²Start the vehicle and run at idle.²Turn the air conditioner On and listen for belt
squeal.
²If belt squeal is heard, turn the air conditioner
Off immediately.
If the belt squeal stops when the air conditioner is
turned Off, perform the following repair procedures.
(1) Using an appropriate sized oil filter wrench or
a strap wrench, grasp the outer diameter of the com-
pressor clutch hub. While facing the compressor,
rotate the hub clockwise, then counterclockwise. If
the hub rotates, proceed to the next step. If the hub
will not rotate, the compressor is internally damaged,
and must be replaced.
(2) Turn the hub clockwise five complete revolu-
tions and remove the tool.
(3) Start the vehicle and run at idle.
(4) Turn the air conditioner On. Observe the com-
pressor and the system for normal operation, noting
cooling performance and noise levels. Operate for five
minutes before turning the air conditioner Off. If
acceptable cooling performance is observed during
compressor operation, the compressor does not need
to be replaced.
(5) Inspect the drive belt for wear, damage, and
proper tension. (Refer to 7 - COOLING/ACCESSORY
DRIVE/DRIVE BELTS - DIAGNOSIS AND TEST-
ING).
