3. INSPECT FOR LEAKAGE OF REFRIGERANT
(a) Perform in these conditions:
Stop engine.
Secure good ventilation (If the gas leak detector
may not react to volatile gases which are not refrig-
erant, such as evaporated gasoline and exhaust
gas.)
Repeat the test 2 or 3 times.
Make sure that there is some refrigerant remaining
in the refrigeration system.
When compressor is OFF: approx. 392 - 588 kPa
(4 - 6 kgf/ cm
2, 57 - 85 psi)
(b) Bring the gas leak detector close to the drain hose before
performing the test.
HINT:
After the blower motor has stopped, leave the cooling unit
for more than 15 minutes.
Expose the gas leak detector sensor under the drain
hose.
When bring the gas leak detector close to the drain hose,
make sure that the gas leak detector does not react to the
volatile gases.
If such reaction is unavoidable, the vehicle must be lifted up.
(c) If gas leak is not detected on the drain hose, remove the
blower resistor from the cooling unit. Then insert the gas
leak detector sensor into the unit and perform the test.
(d) Disconnect the connector and leave the pressure switch
for approx. 20 minutes. Then bring the gas leak detector
close to the pressure switch and perform the test.
(e) Bring the gas leak detector close to the refrigerant lines
and perform the test.

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.
