If the fins are clogged, clean them with compressed air.
NOTICE:
Never use water to clean the evaporator.
(b) Check fitting for cracks or scratches.
If necessary, repair or replace.
2. INSPECT HEATER RADIATOR
Inspect fins for blockage.
If the fins are clogged, clean them with compressed air.
3. INSPECT WATER VALVE SERVOMOTOR CIRCUIT

sembly.
4. INSPECT REFRIGERANT PRESSURE
(See page AC±3)

(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:

REASSEMBLY
Reassembly is in the reverse order of disassembly (See
page AC±57).
AFTER REASSEMBLY, CHECK MAGNETIC CLUTCH
CLEARANCE
(a) Set the dial indicator to the pressure plate of the magnetic
clutch.
(b) Connect the magnetic clutch lead wire to the positive (+)
terminal of the battery.
(c) Check the clearance between the pressure plate and ro-
tor when connecting the negative (±) terminal to the bat-
tery.
Standard clearance:
0.35 to 0.50 mm (0.014 to 0.024 in.)
If the clearance is not within the standard range, adjust the
clearance using shims to obtain the standard clearance.
Standard thickness:
0.1 mm (0.004 in.)
0.3 mm (0.012 in.)
0.5 mm (0.020in.)
