HEATER PERFORMANCE TEST
WARNING: REVIEW SAFETY PRECAUTIONS AND
WARNINGS IN THIS GROUP BEFORE PERFORMING
THIS PROCEDURE (Refer to 24 - HEATING & AIR
CONDITIONING/PLUMBING - WARNING).
Check the coolant level, drive belt tension, radiator
air flow and fan operation. Start engine and allow to
warm up to normal operating temperature.
WARNING: DO NOT REMOVE RADIATOR CAP
WHEN ENGINE IS HOT, PERSONAL INJURY CAN
RESULT.
If vehicle has been run recently, wait 15 minutes
before removing the radiator cap. Place a rag overthe cap and turn it to the first safety stop. Allow
pressure to escape through the overflow tube. When
the system pressure stabilizes, remove the cap com-
pletely.
MAXIMUM HEATER OUTPUT: TEST AND ACTION
Engine coolant is provided to the heater system by
two heater hoses. With the engine idling at normal
operating temperature, set the temperature control
to maximum heat, the mode control to the floor posi-
tion, and the blower in the highest speed position.
Using a test thermometer, check the temperature of
the air being discharged from the floor outlets. Com-
pare the test thermometer reading to the Tempera-
ture Reference chart.

If the floor outlet air temperature is insufficient,
check that the cooling system is operating to specifi-
cations (Refer to 7 - COOLING/ENGINE - DIAGNO-
SIS AND TESTING). Both heater hoses should be
HOT to the touch (the coolant return hose should be
slightly cooler than the supply hose). If the coolant
return hose is much cooler than the supply hose,
locate and repair the engine coolant flow obstruction
in heater system.
OBSTRUCTED COOLANT FLOW Possible locations or causes
of obstructed coolant flow are as follows:
²Pinched or kinked heater hoses.
²Improper heater hose routing.²Plugged heater hoses or supply and return ports
at the cooling system connections.
²Plugged heater core.
If proper coolant flow through the cooling system is
verified, and heater outlet air temperature is insuffi-
cient, a mechanical problem may exist.
MECHANICAL PROBLEMS
Possible causes of insufficient heat due to mechan-
ical problems are as follows:
²Obstructed cowl air intake.
²Obstructed heater system outlets.
²Blend door not functioning properly.

A/C COMPRESSOR CLUTCH/
COIL
DESCRIPTION
The A/C compressor clutch assembly consists of a
stationary electromagnetic A/C clutch field coil with a
zener diode, a pulley bearing and pulley assembly,
and a clutch plate (Fig. 1). These components provide
the means to engage and disengage the A/C compres-
sor from the engine accessory drive belt.The A/C clutch field coil and the pulley bearing
and pulley assembly are both retained on the nose of
the A/C compressor with snap rings. The clutch plate
is splined to the compressor shaft and secured with a
bolt.
OPERATION
The compressor clutch components provide the
means to engage and disengage the compressor from
the engine serpentine accessory drive belt. When the
clutch coil is energized, it magnetically draws the

A zener

clutch plate into contact with the clutch pulley and
drives the compressor shaft. When the coil is not
energized, the pulley freewheels on the clutch hub
bearing, which is part of the pulley.
A zener diode is connected in parallel with the
clutch electromagnetic coil. This diode controls the
dissipation of voltage induced into the coil windings
by the collapsing of the electromagnetic fields that
occurs when the compressor clutch is disengaged.
The zener diode dissipates this induced voltage by
regulating a current path to ground. This arrange-
ment serves to protect other circuits and components
from potentially damaging voltage spikes in the vehi-
cle electrical system that might occur if the voltage
induced in the clutch coil windings could not be dis-
sipated.
The compressor clutch engagement is controlled by
several components: the heater-A/C controls in the
passenger compartment, the A/C pressure transducer
on the liquid line, the evaporator temperature sensor
on the expansion valve for automatic temperature
control (ATC) system or on the HVAC housing for
manual temperature control (MTC) system, the Pow-
ertrain Control Module (PCM) in the engine compart-
ment, and the compressor clutch relay in the
Integrated Power Module (IPM). The PCM may delay
compressor clutch engagement for up to thirty sec-
onds (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC
CONTROL MODULES/POWERTRAIN CONTROL
MODULE - DESCRIPTION - PCM OPERATION).
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
A/C COMPRESSOR CLUTCH COIL
The air conditioning compressor clutch coil electri-
cal circuit is controlled by the powertrain control
module (PCM) through the A/C compressor clutch
relay, which is located in the integrated power mod-
ule (IPM) in the engine compartment. Begin testing
of a suspected compressor clutch coil problem by per-
forming the preliminary checks.
PRELIMINARY CHECKS
(1) If the compressor clutch will not engage, verify
the refrigerant charge level (Refer to 24 - HEATING
& AIR CONDITIONING/PLUMBING - FRONT/RE-
FRIGERANT - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING -
REFRIGERANT CHARGE LEVEL). If the refriger-
ant charge level is OK, go to Step 2. If the refriger-
ant charge level is not OK, adjust the refrigerant
charge as required.
(2) If the A/C compressor clutch still will not
engage, disconnect the wire harness connector for the
A/C pressure transducer and check for battery cur-
rent at the connector with the engine running and
the A/C-heater control set to the A/C mode. If OK, go
to TESTS. If not OK, refer to Body Diagnostic Proce-
dures to perform further diagnosis.
TESTS
(1) Verify the battery state of charge (Refer to 8 -
ELECTRICAL/BATTERY SYSTEM/BATTERY -
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING).
(2) Connect an ammeter (0 to 10 ampere scale
selected) in series with the clutch coil feed terminal.
Connect a voltmeter (0 to 20 volt scale selected) to
measure voltage across the battery and the clutch
coil.
(3) With the heater-A/C control in the A/C mode
and the blower at low speed, start the engine and
allow it to run at a normal idle speed.
(4) The compressor clutch should engage immedi-
ately, and the clutch coil voltage should be within
two volts of the battery voltage. If the coil voltage is
not within two volts of battery voltage, test the
clutch coil feed circuit for excessive voltage drop. If
the compressor clutch does not engage, refer to Body
Diagnostic Procedures to perform further diagnosis.
(5) For the acceptable A/C clutch coil current draw
specificationsrefer to 24 - HEATING & AIR CONDI-
TIONING - SPECIFICATIONS. Specifications apply
for a work area temperature of 21É C (70É F). If volt-
age is more than 12.5 volts, add electrical loads by
turning on electrical accessories until voltage reads
below 12.5 volts.
(a) If the compressor clutch coil current reading
is zero, the coil is open and must be replaced.

(b) If the compressor clutch coil current reading
is four amperes or more, the coil is shorted and
must be replaced.
STANDARD PROCEDURE
CLUTCH INSPECTION
NOTE: The compressor clutch can be serviced in
the vehicle. The refrigerant system can remain fully-
charged during compressor clutch, pulley, or coil
replacement.
Examine the friction surfaces of the clutch pulley
and the clutch plate for wear. The pulley and plate
should be replaced if there is excessive wear or scor-
ing.
If the friction surfaces are oily, inspect the shaft
and nose area of the A/C compressor for refrigerant
oil. If refrigerant oil is found, the compressor shaft
seal is leaking and the A/C compressor must be
replaced.
Check the clutch pulley bearing for roughness or
excessive leakage of grease. Replace the pulley and
bearing assembly, if required.
A/C CLUTCH BREAK-IN
After a new A/C compressor clutch has been
installed, cycle the compressor clutch approximately
twenty times (five seconds on, then five seconds off).
During this procedure, set the A/C-heater controls to
the A/C Recirculation Mode, the blower motor in the
highest speed position, and the engine speed at 1500
to 2000 rpm. This procedure (burnishing) will seat
the opposing friction surfaces of the compressor
clutch, which provides optimum compressor clutch
torque capability.
REMOVAL
NOTE: The compressor clutch can be serviced in
the vehicle. The refrigerant system can remain fully-
charged during compressor clutch, pulley, or coil
replacement.
(1) Disconnect and isolate the negative battery
cable.
(2) Remove the accessory drive belt (Refer to 7 -
COOLING/ACCESSORY DRIVE/DRIVE BELTS -
REMOVAL).
(3) Raise and support the vehicle.
(4) Disconnect the engine wire harness connector
for the compressor clutch coil from the clutch coil pig-
tail wire connector on the top of the A/C compressor.
(5) On models with the 3.3L and 3.8L engines, dis-
engage the retainer on the engine wire harness com-pressor clutch coil take out from the bracket on the
top of the A/C compressor.
(6) On models with the 2.4L, 2.5L and 2.8L
engines, remove all of the compressor mounting bolts
except the upper left (rear of the A/C compressor),
which should only be loosened. Allow the front (pul-
ley end) of the A/C compressor to tilt downward far
enough to access the clutch for removal, then tighten
the loosened upper left compressor mounting bolt.
(7) On models with the 3.3L and 3.8L engines,
remove the two bolts and two nuts that secure the
A/C compressor to the engine. Disengage the mount-
ing ear at the front of the A/C compressor from the
stud on the engine, allow the front (pulley end) of the
A/C compressor to tilt downward far enough to access
the clutch for removal, then reinstall and tighten the
upper left compressor mounting bolt.
(8) Remove the compressor shaft bolt (Fig. 2). A
band-type oil filter wrench or a strap wrench may be
used to secure the clutch during bolt removal.
(9) Tap the clutch plate lightly with a plastic mal-
let to release it from the splines on the compressor
shaft. Remove the clutch plate and shim(s) from the
compressor shaft (Fig. 3).
NOTE: Use care not to lose any of the shim(s).

compressor. The bevel side of the snap ring must face
outward and both snap ring eyelets must be oriented
to the right or the left of the clutch coil dowel pin
location on the A/C compressor. Be certain that the
snap ring is fully and properly seated in the groove.
CAUTION: If the snap ring is not fully seated in the
groove it will vibrate out, resulting in a clutch fail-
ure and severe damage to the compressor front
cover.
(3) Install and securely tighten the screw that
secures the clutch coil pigtail wire connector bracket
and ground clip to the top of the compressor housing.
(4) Install the pulley onto the front cover of the
A/C compressor. If necessary, tap the pulley gently
with a block of wood placed on the pulley friction sur-
face (Fig. 6).
CAUTION: Do not mar the friction surfaces of the
pulley.
NOTE: A new snap ring must be used to secure the
clutch pulley to the A/C compressor. The bevel side
of the snap ring must face outward.
(5) Using snap ring pliers (Special Tool C-4574 or
equivalent), install the external snap ring (bevel side
facing outward) that secures the clutch pulley to the
front cover of the A/C compressor. Be certain that the
snap ring is fully and properly seated in the groove.(6) If the original clutch plate and clutch pulley
are to be reused, reinstall the original shim(s) on the
compressor shaft against the shoulder. If a new
clutch plate and/or clutch pulley are being used,
install a trial stack of shims 2.54 mm (0.010 in.)
thick on the compressor shaft against the shoulder.
(7) Install the clutch plate onto the compressor
shaft.
NOTE: The shims may compress after tightening
the shaft bolt. Check the air gap in four or more
places to verify the air gap is still correct. Spin the
pulley before performing a final check of the air
gap.
(8) With the clutch plate assembly tight against
the shim(s), measure the air gap between the clutch
plate and the pulley face with feeler gauges. The air
gap should be between 0.35 - 0.60 mm (0.014 - 0.024
in.). If the proper air gap is not obtained, add or sub-
tract shims as needed until the desired air gap is
obtained.
(9) Install the compressor shaft bolt. Tighten the
bolt to 17.5 N´m (155 in. lbs.).
(10) On models with the 2.4L, 2.5L and 2.8L
engines, loosely install the four bolts that secure the
A/C compressor to the mounting bracket on the
engine (2.4L), or the cylinder block (2.5L/2.8L).
Tighten the bolts to 28 N´m (21 ft. lbs.).
(11) On models with the 3.3L and 3.8L engines,
