After charging refrigerant, check for leaks.
Checking for Refrigerant LeaksEJS003Z5
Perform a visual inspection of all refrigeration parts, fittings, hoses and components for signs of A/C lubricant
leakage, damage, and corrosion. Any A/C lubricant leakage may indicate an area of refrigerant leakage. Allow
extra inspection time in these areas when using either an electronic refrigerant leak detector (J-41995) or fluo-
rescent dye leak detector (J-42220).
If any dye is observed using a fluorescent dye leak detector (J-42220), confirm the leak using a electronic
refrigerant leak detector (J-41995). It is possible that the dye is from a prior leak that was repaired and not
properly cleaned.
When searching for leaks, do not stop when one leak is found but continue to check for additional leaks at all
system components and connections.
When searching for refrigerant leaks using an electronic refrigerant leak detector (J-41995), move the probe
along the suspected leak area at 25 - 50 mm (1 - 2 in) per second and no further than 6 mm (1/4 in) from the
component.
CAUTION:
Moving the electronic refrigerant leak detector probe slower and closer to the suspected leak area will
improve the chances of finding a leak.
Checking System for Leaks Using the Fluorescent Dye Leak DetectorEJS003Z6
1. Check the A/C system for leaks using the fluorescent dye leak detector and safety goggles (J-42220) in a
low sunlight area (area without windows preferable). Illuminate all components, fittings and lines. The dye
will appear as a bright green/yellow area at the point of leakage. Fluorescent dye observed at the evapo-
rator drain opening indicates an evaporator core assembly leak (tubes, core or expansion valve).
2. If the suspected area is difficult to see, use an adjustable mirror or wipe the area with a clean shop rag or
cloth, then inspect the shop rag or cloth with the fluorescent dye leak detector (J-42220) for dye residue.
3. After the leak is repaired, remove any residual dye using refrigerant dye cleaner (J-43872) to prevent
future misdiagnosis.
4. Perform a system performance check and then verify the leak repair using a electronic refrigerant leak
detector (J-41995).
NOTE:
Other gases in the work area or substances on the A/C components, for example, anti-freeze, wind-
shield washer fluid, solvents and lubricants, may falsely trigger the leak detector. Make sure the sur-
faces to be checked are clean.
Clean with a dry cloth or blow off with shop air.
Do not allow the sensor tip of the electronic refrigerant leak detector (J-41995) to contact with any sub-
stance. This can also cause false readings and may damage the detector.
Dye InjectionEJS003Z7
NOTE:
This procedure is only necessary when recharging the system or when the compressor has seized and must
be replaced.
1. Check the A/C system static (at rest) pressure. Pressure must be at least 345 kPa (3.52 kg/cm
2 , 50 psi). Expansion valve bolts : 4 N·m (0.41 kg-m, 35 in-lb)
A/C refrigerant pipe to expansion valve bolt : Refer to ATC-177, "
Components"
