3. INSPECT IDLE±UP SPEED
(a) Warm up the engine.
(b) Inspect idle±up speed when the following conditions are
established.

Warm up engine

Blower speed control switch at ºHIº position

A/C switch ON

Temperature control dial at ºCOOLº position
Magnetic clutch conditionIdle±up speed
Magnetic clutch not engaged700 ± 50 rpm
Magnetic clutch engaged780 ± 50 rpm
If idle speed is not as specified, check the Idle control system.
4. INSPECT FOR LEAKAGE OF REFRIGERANT
(a) Perform under the following conditions:

Stop the engine.

Secure good ventilation (If not, the gas leak detec-
tor may react to volatile gases witch are not refriger-
ant, 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 the compressor is OFF: approx. 392 to 588
kPa (4 to 6 kgf/ cm
2, 57 to 85 psi)
(b) Bring the gas leak detector close to the drain hose before
performing the test.
HINT:

After the blower motor stopped, leave the cooling unit for
more than 15 minutes.

Bring the gas leak detector sensor under the drain hose.

When bringing 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 motor linear controller from the cooling unit. Then
insert the gas leak detector sensor into the unit and per-
form 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.

3. CHARGE REFRIGERANT INTO REFRIGERANT SYS-
TEM
If there is no leak after refrigerant leak check, charge the proper
amount of refrigerant into the refrigeration system.
CAUTION:

Never run the engine when charging the system
through the high pressure side.

Do not open the low pressure side valve when the
system is being charged with liquid refrigerant.
(a) Open the high pressure side valve fully.
(b) Charge specified amount of refrigerant, then close the
high pressure side valve.
HINT:
The system is fully charged if bubbles cannot be seen through
the sight glass.
(c) Partially charge the refrigeration system with refrigerant.
(1) Prepare the vehicle:

Running engine at 1,500 rpm

Single A/C:
Front blower speed control dial at ºHIº posi-
tion

Dual A/C:
Front and rear blower speed set at ºHIº posi-
tion

Single A/C:
Front temperature control dial at ºMAX.
COOLº position

Dual A/C:
Front temperature control dial at ºMAX.

Rear temperature control set at 18.5°C
(65°F)

Air inlet control set at ºRECIRCº

Fully open doors (Sliding roof: closed)
(2) Open the low pressure side valve.
CAUTION:
Do not open the high pressure side valve.
(d) Charge refrigerant until bubbles disappear and check the
pressure on the gauge through the sight glass.

1. INSPECT FOR LEAKAGE OF REFRIGERANT
(a) Remove the console box assembly.
(b) Remove the glove compartment door.
(c) Remove the lower No. 2 finish panel.
(d) Remove the heater to register duct No. 4.
(e) Remove the lower LH finish panel.
(f) Remove the lower cover (See page BO±89).
(g) Remove the blower controller.
(1) Disconnect the connector.
(2) Remove the 2 screws and blower motor linear con-
troller.
(h) Using a gas leak detector, check for leakage.
If there is leakage, check the tightening torque at the joints or
check the evaporator.
(i) Install the blower motor linear controller with the 2 screws.
(j) Install the lower cover.
(k) Install the lower LH finish panel.
(l) Install the lower No.2 finish panel.
(m) Install the glove compartment door (See page BO±97).
2. INSPECT EXPANSION VALVE
(a) Set the manifold gauge set.
(b) Run the engine.
(c) Check quantity of gas with the sight glass in refrigeration
cycle.
(1) Run the engine at 1,500 rpm for at least 5 minutes.
(2) Then check that the high pressure reading is 1.37
to 1.57 Mpa (14 to 16 kgm/cm
2, 199 to 228 psi).
(d) Check the expansion valve.
If the expansion valve is faulty, the low pressure reading will
drop to 0 kPa (0 kgf/cm
2, 0 psi).
HINT:
When the low pressure reading drops to 0 kPa (0 kgf/cm
2, 0
psi), there is no difference in temperature between the IN and
OUT sides of the receiver.
3. INSPECT THERMISTOR RESISTANCE
(a) Disconnect the connector.
(b) Measure the resistance between terminals.
Standard resistance: 1,500 W at 25°C (77°F)
If resistance is not as specified, replace the thermistor.
