ON±VEHICLE INSPECTION
1. SET MANIFOLD GAUGE SET (See page AC±18)
2. START ENGINE
3. INSPECT COMPRESSOR FOR METALLIC SOUND
Check if a metallic sound can be heard from the compressor
when the A/C switch is on.
If a metallic sound cannot be heard, replace the compressor as-
sembly.
4. INSPECT REFRIGERANT PRESSURE
(See page AC±3)
5. STOP ENGINE
6. INSPECT VISUALLY FOR LEAKAGE OF REFRIGER-
ANT FROM SAFETY SEAL
Using a gas leak detector, check for leakage of refrigerant.
If there is any leakage, replace the compressor assembly.
7. REMOVE MANIFOLD GAUGE SET
(See page AC±19)
8. CHECK FOR LEAKAGE OF GREASE FROM CLUTCH
BEARING
9. CHECK FOR SIGNS OF OIL ON PRESSURE PLATE
If necessary, repair or replace.
10. INSPECT MAGNETIC CLUTCH BEARING FOR NOISE
(a) Start the engine.
(b) Check if abnormal noise is heard from near the compres-
sor when the A/C switch is OFF.
If abnormal noise is being emitted, replace the magnetic clutch.
11. INSPECT MAGNETIC CLUTCH OPERATION
(a) Disconnect the connector.
(b) Connect the positive (+) lead from the battery to terminal
3 and the negative (±) lead to body ground.
(c) Check that the magnetic clutch is energized.
If operation is not as specified, replace the magnetic clutch.
12. INSPECT COMPRESSOR LOCK SENSOR RESIS-
TANCE
(a) Disconnect the connector.
(b) Measure the resistance between terminals 1 and 2.
Standard resistance:
165 to 205 W at 20°C (68°F)
If resistance is not as specified, replace the compressor.

ON±VEHICLE INSPECTION
1. CHECK QUANTITY OF GAS DURING REFRIGERATION CYCLE
2. SET MANIFOLD GAUGE SET (See page AC±18)
3. RUN ENGINE
(a) Rear blower speed set at ºHIº position
(b) A/C switch ON
(c) Rear temperature control set at 18.5°C (65°F)
(d) Run the engine at 1,500 rpm for at least 5 minutes.
Then check that the high pressure reading is 1.9 to 2.1 MPa (19 to 21 kgf/cm
2, 270 to 300 psi).
4. CHECK EXPANSION VALVE
If the expansion valve is faulty, the low pressure reading will drop to 0 kPa (0 kgf/cm
2, 0 psi).
