O-RING AND REFRIGERANT CONNECTIONNJHA0115S02
NHA493
CAUTION:
The new and former refrigerant connections in some systems use different O-ring configurations. Do
not confuse O-rings since they are not interchangeable. If a wrong O-ring is installed, refrigerant will
leak at, or around, the connection.

WARNING:
Make sure all refrigerant is discharged into the recycling equipment and the pressure in the system
is less than atmospheric pressure. Then gradually loosen the discharge side hose fitting and remove
it.
CAUTION:
When replacing or cleaning refrigerant cycle components, observe the following.
+When the compressor is removed, store it in the same position as it is when mounted on the car.
Failure to do so will cause lubricant to enter the low pressure chamber.
+When connecting tubes, always use a torque wrench and a back-up wrench.
+After disconnecting tubes, immediately plug all openings to prevent entry of dirt and moisture.
PRECAUTIONS
Precautions for Refrigerant Connection (Cont'd)
HA-4

+When installing an air conditioner in the vehicle, connect the pipes as the final stage of the opera-
tion. Do not remove the seal caps of pipes and other components until just before required for
connection.
+Allow components stored in cool areas to warm to working area temperature before removing seal
caps. This prevents condensation from forming inside A/C components.
+Thoroughly remove moisture from the refrigeration system before charging the refrigerant.
+Always replace used O-rings.
+When connecting tube, apply lubricant to circle of the O-rings shown in illustration. Be careful not
to apply lubricant to threaded portion.
Lubricant name: Nissan A/C System Oil Type R for DKV-11G compressor
Part number: KLH00-PAGR0
Lubricant name: Nissan A/C System Oil Type S for CSV613 compressor
Part number: KLH00-PAGS0
+O-ring must be closely attached to dented portion of tube.
+When replacing the O-ring, be careful not to damage O-ring and tube.
+Connect tube until you hear it click, then tighten the nut or bolt by hand until snug. Make sure that
the O-ring is installed to tube correctly.
+After connecting line, conduct leak test and make sure that there is no leakage from connections.
When the gas leaking point is found, disconnect that line and replace the O-ring. Then tighten
connections of seal seat to the specified torque.
RHA861F
Precautions for Servicing CompressorNJHA0116+Plug all openings to prevent moisture and foreign matter from entering.
+When the compressor is removed, store it in the same position as it is when mounted on the car.
+When replacing or repairing compressor, follow ªMaintenance of Lubricant Quantity in Compres-
sorº exactly. Refer to HA-86.
+Keep friction surfaces between clutch and pulley clean. If the surface is contaminated, with
lubricant, wipe it off by using a clean waste cloth moistened with thinner.
+After compressor service operation, turn the compressor shaft by hand more than five turns in
both directions. This will equally distribute lubricant inside the compressor. After the compressor
is installed, let the engine idle and operate the compressor for one hour.
+After replacing the compressor magnet clutch, apply voltage to the new one and check for normal
operation.

RHA143E
+Install the pulley assembly using the installer and a hand
press, and then install the snap ring using snap ring pliers.
RHA127F
+Install the clutch disc on the drive shaft, together with the
original shim(s). Press the clutch disc down by hand.
RHA086E
+Using the holder to prevent clutch disc rotation, tighten the bolt
to 14 N´m (1.4 kg-m, 10 ft-lb) torque.
After tightening the bolt, check that the pulley rotates
smoothly.
RHA087E
+Check clearance around the entire periphery of clutch disc.
Disc-to-pulley clearance:
0.3 - 0.6 mm (0.012 - 0.024 in)
If the specified clearance is not obtained, replace adjusting
spacer and readjust.
Break-in OperationNJHA0214S01When replacing compressor clutch assembly, always carry out the
break-in operation. This is done by engaging and disengaging the
clutch about thirty times. Break-in operation raises the level of
transmitted torque.

Trouble DiagnosesNJSC0011Before conducting an alternator test, make sure that the battery is fully charged. A 30-volt voltmeter and suit-
able test probes are necessary for the test. The alternator can be checked easily by referring to the Inspec-
tion Table.
+Before starting, inspect the fusible link.
+Use fully charged battery.
WITH IC REGULATORNJSC0011S01
SEL338V
NOTE:
+If the inspection result is OK even though the charging system is malfunctioning, check the B terminal
connection. (Check the tightening torque.)
+When field circuit is open, check condition of rotor coil, rotor slip ring and brush. If necessary, replace faulty
parts with new ones.
MALFUNCTION INDICATORNJSC0011S02The IC regulator warning function activates to illuminate ªCHARGEº warning lamp, if any of the following
symptoms occur while alternator is operating:
+Excessive voltage is produced.
+No voltage is produced.
