INSPECTION
1. CHECK EVAPORATOR FINS FOR BLOCKAGE
If the fins are clogged, clean them with compressed air.
NOTICE:
Never use water to clean the evaporator.
2. CHECK FITTINGS FOR CRACKS OR SCRATCHES
Repair as necessary.
3. INSPECT EVAPORATOR TEMPERATURE SENSOR
(a) Place the sensor in cold water, and while changing the
temperature  of water, measure resistance at the connec-
tor and at the same time, measure temperature of water
with a thermometer.
(b) Compare the 2 readings on the chart.
If resistance is not as specified, replace the thermistor.

REMOVAL
1. DISCHARGE REFRIGERANT FROM REFRIGERATION
SYSTEM
HINT:
At the time of installation, please refer to the following item.
Evacuate air from refrigeration system.
Charge system with refrigerant and inspect for leakage of refrig-
erant.
Specified amount: 600 ± 50 g (21.16 ± 1.76 oz.)
2. DRAIN ENGINE COOLANT FROM RADIATOR
HINT:
It is not necessary to drain out all coolant.
3. DISCONNECT LIQUID AND SUCTION TUBES
(a) Using SST, remove the 2 piping clamps.
SST 09870-00015 (Suction tube)
09870-00025 (Liquid tube)
(1) Insert SST to piping clamp.
HINT:
Confirm the direction of the piping clamp claw and SST using
the illustration showing on the caution label.
(2) Push down SST and release the clamp lock.
NOTICE:
Be careful not to deform the tubes, when pushing SST.
(3) Pull SST slightly and push the release lever, then re-
move the piping clamp with SST.
(4) Remove the piping clamp from SST.
(b) Disconnect the both tubes.

minal 5 and negative (-) lead to terminal 2.
(2) Check the motor arm rotates counterclockwise and
arm stops on the ºFRESHº position.
(3) Connect  the positive (+) lead from the battery to ter-
minal 5 and negative (-) lead to terminal 1.
(4) Check the motor arm rotates counterclockwise and
arm stops on the ºRECIRCº position.
If operations are not as specified, replace the servomotor.
