TEST PROCEDURES
1. Select a quiet area for testing.
2. Duplicate problem (customer complaint) as much as
possible.
3. Judge if the noise is abnormal (ie. it is important to
understand the characteristics of the vehicle and its normal
state to judge what is abnormal) - Compare with similar
vehicle if necessary.
4. Detail what and how noise occurs.
5. Find the noise source and verify its transmission by isolating
the subject part from the vehicle.
6. Repair the problem.
7. Explain and report your findings.
DETAILS OF A/C NOISE
POSSIBLE CAUSES, CHECKS AND REPAIRS
NOISE DESCRIPTION WHEN IT OCCURS SOURCE OF NOISE
Rumbling (Bearing noise) With A/C On or Off Magnetic clutch, idler pulley
Clang-Clack noise When compressor is engaged Magnetic clutch operation
Squawking (Belt sliding noise) When compressor is engaged V-belt
Whistling or Whooping noise Immediately after the A/C is
engaged.Expansion valve
Hissing or swishing noise When A/C is engaged, but
decreases as flow is stable Refrigerant flow
Rattling (Internal compressor) When compressor is operating Compressor internal part
Wooing (Resonant noise) With A/C On, occurs at certain
speed.Resonance of accessories
Cooing (Discharge pulsation
noise)With A/C On or Off Resonating noise with the vehicle
body
NOISE DESCRIPTION POSSIBLE CAUSE CHECK REPAIR
Rumbling (Bearing
noise)Bearing damage in rotor Manual rotation of bearing Replace compressor
Rotor slipping on boss Wear on compressor boss
surfaceReplace compressor
Bearing damage in pulley Check alignment between
pulleysReplace compressor
Clang-Clack noise Hub to stator misaligned Wear on inner clutch face Replace compressor
Gap between clutch

Squawking (Belt sliding
noise)Oil/water between the belt
and rotor surfaceOil and water
contaminationClean

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS
The starter motor does not operate at all.
Battery posts, terminals and related accessories con-
tain lead and lead compounds. WASH HANDS AFTER
HANDLING.
Check the starter (coil).
Check for poor contact at the battery terminals and
starter.
Check the transmission range switch.
The starter motor doesn't stop
Check the starter (magnetic switch).
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
The starting system troubleshooting guide is shown in the fol-
lowing steps.
Battery posts, terminals and related accessories con-
tain lead and lead compounds. WASH HANDS AFTER
HANDLING.
STEP 1.
Q: Is the battery in good condition? (Refer to GROUP 54A,
Chassis Electrical
Battery On-vehicle Service
Battery Check P.54A-5.)
YES : Go to Step 2.
NO : Charge or replace the battery.
STEP 2.
Disconnect the starter motor S (solenoid) terminal connec-
tor.
Using a jumper wire, apply battery positive voltage to the
starter motor S (solenoid) terminal.
Check the engine condition.
OK: Turns normally
Q: Dose the starter motor operate normally?
YES :
Check the ignition switch (Refer to GROUP 54A,
Chassis Electrical
Ignition Switch Ignition
Switch
Inspection P.54A-44.)
Check the transmission range switch. (Refer to
GROUP 23A, Automatic Transaxle
On-vehicle
Service
Essential Service Transmission Range
Switch Check P.23A-294.)
Check the wire between the battery and starter
motor S (solenoid) terminal.
NO : Go to Step 3.
