Diagnostic Information and Procedures
A/C System Performance InspectionS6RW0D7214001
1) Confirm that vehicle and environmental conditions
are as follows.
• Vehicle is put indoors.
• Ambient temperature is within 25 – 35 °C (77 – 95
°F).
• Relative humidity is within 30 – 70%.
• There is no wind indoors.
• HVAC unit is normal.
• Blower motor is normal.
• There is no air leakage from air ducts.
• Condenser fins are clean.
• HVAC air filter is not clogged with dirt and dust (if
equipped).
• Battery voltage is about 12 V.
• Radiator cooling fan operates normally.
2) Make sure that high pressure valve (1) and low
pressure valve (2) of manifold gauge are firmly
closed.
3) Connect high pressure charging hose (3) to high
pressure service valve (5) on vehicle and low
pressure charging hose (4) to low pressure service
valve (6).
4) Bleed the air in charging hoses (3) and (4) by
loosening their nuts respectively utilizing the
refrigerant pressure. When a hissing sound is heard,
immediately tighten nut.
CAUTION!
Do not connect high and low pressure
charging hoses in reverse.

5) Warm up engine to the normal operating
temperature and keep it at the specified idle speed.
6) Turn A/C switch ON, set blower speed selector at
maximum speed position, temperature selector at
maximum cold position, air flow selector at face
position, and air intake selector at recirculation
position. (Confirm that A/C compressor, A/C
condenser cooling fan and radiator cooling fan are
working.)
7) Wait for ten minutes to stabilize the A/C operation.
8) Open all door windows, front doors and engine hood.
9) With about 20 mm (0.8 in.) of dry bulb thermometer
(1) put right in front of center ventilation louver and a
wet and dry bulb thermometer (2) near air inlet of
HVAC unit.

Low pressure gauge
11) Check inlet port temperature-to-outlet port temperature relationship using the graph. For example, if temperature
near air inlet of HVAC unit is 30 °C (86 °F) and the one at air outlet of center ventilation louver is 17 °C (62.6 °F),
their crossing point is within acceptable range as shown in the graph. In this case, cooling performance is
satisfactory and proper.
12) If crossing point is out of acceptable range, diagnose trouble referring to the following table. Pressure is lower than
acceptable range
(“B” area)Insufficient refrigerant (Insufficient charge or
leakage)Check for leakage, repair if necessary
and recharge.
Expansion valve malfunction (valve opens too
wide)Check expansion valve.
Compressor malfunction (Insufficient
compression)Check compressor.
Condition Possible cause Correction
Pressure is higher than
acceptable range
(“C” area)Expansion valve malfunction (valve opens too
wide)Check expansion valve.
Compressor malfunction (Insufficient
compression)Check compressor.
Pressure is lower than
acceptable range
(“D” area)Insufficient refrigerant (Insufficient charge or
leakage)Check for leakage, repair if necessary
and recharge.
Expansion valve malfunction (valve opens too
narrow)Check expansion valve.
Clogged refrigerant passage (crashed pipe) Repair or replace.
