Trouble Diagnosis of Turbocharger=NLEM0104S0206Preliminary check:
+Check that the engine oil level is between MIN and MAX of the
dipstick. (When the engine oil amount is more than MAX, the
oil flows into the inlet duct through the blow-by gas passage,
and the turbocharger is misjudged failure.)
+Ask the customer if he/she always runs the vehicle in idle
engine speed to cool the oil down after driving.
+Replace the turbocharger assembly when any malfunction is
found after unit inspections specified in the table below.
+If no malfunction is found after the unit inspections, judge that
the turbocharger body has no failure. Check the other parts
again.

REMOVALNLEM0069S011. Remove engine undercover, and hood for hoisting.
2. Drain coolant from both cylinder block and radiator. Refer to
LC-59, ªChanging Engine Coolantº.
3. Remove the following parts:
+Battery
+RH and LH front wheels
+RH and LH splash covers (combined with undercover)
+Auxiliary belts
+Alternator
+Alternator brackets
+Radiator and cooling fan
+Engine cover
+Air ducts and air cleaner case
LH side of engine room:
4. Disconnect all harnesses and grounds that are connected to
components on vehicle.
5. Disconnect vacuum hose on vacuum pump side.
6. Disconnect fuel feed and fuel return hoses on engine side.
+Immediately put blind plugs into the openings to prevent
fuel from flowing out.
7. Disconnect heater hose. Plug opening of hose to prevent cool-
ant from flowing out.
RH side of engine room:
8. Remove air conditioner compressor from brackets and move
it toward vehicle side. Secure compressor on vehicle side with
rope.
Vehicle underside:
9. Remove exhaust front tube.
10. Disconnect two hoses from power steering pump and plug to
stop fluid.
11. Remove M/T control rod and support rod.
12. Remove ABS wheel sensor, and temporarily hang brake cali-
per with rope on vehicle side.
13. Remove RH and LH drive shafts.

14. Install engine slingers to cylinder head.
: 30 - 37 N´m (3.0 - 3.8 kg-m, 22 - 27 ft-lb)
+Use engine slingers and securing bolts of the specified
service parts.
15. Lift up vehicle to appropriate level where work can be per-
formed efficiently. Using two transmission jacks, securely sup-
port engine oil pan and bottom surface of transaxle.

+Make sure that support is stable with the use of safety
blocks.
16. Install hooks of lifting chain into engine slingers and tighten
chain so that engine still remains on transmission jacks with-
out being lifted up.
17. Remove engine mount insulator RH.
18. Remove through-bolt of engine mount insulator LH.
19. Remove bolts securing center member at front and rear.
JEM190G
20. Carefully lower transmission jacks in accordance with the low-
ering pace of the hoist, and remove engine and transaxle
assembly from vehicle.
+While working, check that no parts of engine assembly
interfere with adjacent parts on the vehicle.
+While working, make sure that parts requiring disconnec-
tion are not left connected, and that no parts interfere with
vehicle.
+To prevent vehicle from falling down, perform operation
carefully so that the center of gravity of the vehicle will not
shift.
21. Remove center member.
+Before starting removal operation, first place the assem-
bly on a level surface and securely support the bottom
surface with wood blocks. Using a hoist, lift engine
slingers, and make sure the assembly is stable.
22. Separate engine and transaxle.
INSTALLATIONNLEM0069S02Install in the reverse order of removal, observing the following:
+While installing, be careful to keep mount insulators free of oil
smear and damage.
+When parts require specified installation directions/positions,
install by using the identifying marks indicating up or front.
+While keeping the mount insulators free of twists or distortions,
start tightening from the through-bolt on the engine mount
insulator LH. This mount is used as the reference position.

Refrigeration System
REFRIGERATION CYCLENLHA0121Refrigerant FlowNLHA0121S01The refrigerant flows in the standard pattern, that is, through the compressor, the condenser, the liquid tank,
through the evaporator, and back to the compressor. The refrigerant evaporation through the evaporator coil
is controlled by an externally equalized expansion valve, located inside the heater & cooling unit.
Freeze ProtectionNLHA0121S02The compressor cycles go on and off to maintain the evaporator temperature within a specified range. When
the evaporator coil temperature falls below a specified point, the thermo control amplifier interrupts the com-
pressor operation. When the evaporator coil temperature rises above the specification, the thermo control
amplifier allows compressor operation.
Refrigerant System ProtectionNLHA0121S03Refrigerant Pressure SensorNLHA0121S0303The refrigerant system is protected against excessively high or low pressures by the refrigerant pressure
sensor, located on the liquid tank. If the system pressure rises above, or falls below the specifications, the
refrigerant pressure sensor detects the pressure inside the refrigerant line and sends the voltage signal to the
ECM. ECM makes the A/C relay go OFF and stops the compressor when pressure on the high pressure side
detected by refrigerant pressure sensor is over about 2,746 kPa (27.5 bar, 28 kg/cm
2, 398 psi) or below about
137 kPa (1.37 bar, 1.4 kg/cm2, 20 psi).
Dual-pressure Switch
NLHA0121S0304The refrigerant system is protected against excessively high or low pressures by the dual-pressure switch,
located on the liquid tank. If the pressure falls out of specifications, the switch opens to interrupt compressor
operation.
Pressure Relief Valve
NLHA0121S0302The refrigerant system is also protected by a pressure relief valve, located in the rear head of the compres-
sor. When the pressure of refrigerant in the system increases to an abnormal level [more than 3,727 kPa (37.3
bar, 38 kg/cm
2, 540 psi)], the release port on the pressure relief valve automatically opens and releases
refrigerant into the atmosphere.
