Additional health and safety information may be obtained from the refrigerant and lubricant manufacturers.1. When an A/C System has been opened to the atmosphere, such as during installation or repair, it must be
evacuated using an R- 134a refrigerant Recovery/Recycling/Charging System. (If the system has been open for
several days, the receiver/dryer should be replaced, and the system should be evacuated for several hours.)
2. Connect an R- 134a refrigerant Recovery/Recycling/Charging System (A) to the high- pressure service port (B) and
the low- pressure service port (C) as shown, following the equipment manufacturer's instructions.
3.If the low- pressure does not reach more than 93.3 kPa (700 mmHg, 27.6 in.Hg) in 10 minutes, there is probably a
leak in the system. Partially charge the system, and check for leaks (see Leak Test.).
4. Remove the low pressure valve from the low- pressure service port.
SYSTEM CHARGING
Use only service equipment that is U.L - listed and is certified to meet the requirements of SAE J2210 to remove HFC-
134a(R- 134a) from the air conditioning system.
a.Air conditioning refrigerant or lubricant vapor can irritate your eyes, nose, or throat.
b. Be careful when connecting service equipment.
c. Do not breathe refrigerant or vapor.
If accidental system discharge occurs, ventilate work area before resuming service.
Additional health and safety information may be obtained from the refrigerant and lubricant manufacturers. 1. Connect an R- 134a refrigerant Recovery/Recycling/Charging System (A) to the high- pressure service port (B) as
shown, following the equipment manufacturer's instructions.
2.Add the same amount of new refrigerant oil to system that was removed during recovery. Use only specified
refrigerant oil. Charge the system with 28.21 ± 0.88 oz. (800 ± 25g) of R- 134a refrigerant. Do not overcharge the
system the compressor will be damaged.
REFRIGERANT LEAK TEST
Always conduct a leak test with an electronic leak detector whenever leakage or refrigerant is suspected and when
conducting service operations which are accompanied by disassembly or loosening or connection fittings.

REMOVAL
1.If the compressor is marginally operable, run the engine at idle speed, and let the air conditioning work for a few
minutes, then shut the engine off.
2. Disconnect the negative cable from the battery.
3. Recover the refrigerant with a recovery/charging station (Refer to HA - 8).
4. Loosen the drive belt (Refer to HA - 14).
5. Remove the bolts, then disconnect the suction line (A) and discharge line (B) from the compressor. Plug (C) or cap
the lines immediately after disconnecting them to avoid moisture and dust contamination.
6.Disconnect the compressor clutch connector (A), and then remove 4 mounting bolts and the compressor.
INSTALLATION
1.Make sure of the length of compressor mounting bolts.
2.Install in the reverse order of removal, and note these items.
a. If you're installing a new compressor, drain all the refrigerant oil from the removed compressor, and measure its
volume, Subtract the volume of drained oil from 120cc(4.20 oz.) the result is the amount of oil you should drain

INSPECTION
1.Check the condenser fins for clogging and damage. If clogged, clean them with water, and blow them with
compressed air. If bent, gently bend them using a screwdriver or pliers.
2. Check the condenser connections for leakage, and repair or replace it, if required.
REPLACEMENT
CONDENSER ASSEMBLY

4. Remove 2 bolts, and then remove the condenser (A) by lifting it up. Be careful not to damage the radiator and
condenser fins when removing the condenser.
5.Install in the reverse order of removal, and note these items :
a. If you're installing a new condenser, add refrigerant oil ND- OIL8.
b. Replace the O - rings with new ones at each fitting, and apply a thin coat of refrigerant oil before installing them.
Be sure to use the right O - rings for R- 134a to avoid leakage.
c. Be careful not to damage the radiator and condenser fins when installing the condenser.
d. Be sure to install the lower mount cushions of condenser securely into the holes.
e. Charge the system, and test its performance. (Refer to HA - 9)
DESICCANT
1.Remove the condenser, and then remove the bottom cap (B) with L wrench (A) from the condenser.

INSPECTION
1.Measure the pressure of high pressure line by measuring voltage output between NO.1 and NO.2 terminals.
2.Inspect the voltage value whether it is sufficient to be regular value or not.
Vout = Vdd(0.025 * P + 0.1) [kgf/cm²G]
Vout = Vdd(0.001758 * P + 0.074162) [PSIA]
3. If the measured voltage value is not specification, replace the A/C pressure transducer.
REPLACEMENT
1.Disconnect the negative ( - ) battery terminal.
2. Recover the refrigerant with a recovery/charging station.
3. Disconnect A/C pressure transducer connector (3P) (A).

The IPM sends the park brake indicator control on the CAN network.
The indicator is lighted if the vacuum switch or ABS EBD warning are on or brake fluid sensor is low or park brake
switch is on.
If the speed of the vehicle is over 10 km/h and ignition switch is on the status RUN the park brake indicator control is
blinking at 50% duty in 0.6 second if Parking Brake switch Input is active. In this case Vacuum switch, ABS EBD
warning and Brake Fluid sensor are ignored.
The park brake indicator is blinking on the same time that the chime is ringing. If a CAN signal among Vacuum switch,
EBD warning or Brake Fluid Sens switch is INVALID, out of range or not received this CAN signal is considered to be
OFF.
If VehicleSpeed CAN signal is INVALID or not received, it is considered to be 0 kph.
Charging Voltage Control
The IPM receives on analog input the voltage of generator and sends a warning.
When the voltage of generator L pass strictly above 10V, the state of the CAN variable.
Turn Indicators Status
The status of the turn indicators are sent on the CAN network when the CAN network is available.
High Beam Status
The status of the high beam is sent on the CAN network when the CAN network is available.
Front Fog Lamp Status
The status of the front fog lamp (lightning and state of the bulbs) is sent on the CAN network when the CAN network
is available.
Doors Open Warning
The RAM receives on digital input the status of the driver door open switch and sends it on the CAN network.
The RAM receives on digital input the status of the passenger door open switch and sends it on the CAN network.
The RAM receives on digital input the status of the left sliding door open switch and sends it on the CAN network.
