STEERING -On-vehicle Service37A-11
POWER STEERING OIL PRESSURE SWITCH
CHECK
1. Disconnect the pressure hose from the oil pump, and
then connect the special tools.
2. Bleed the air, and then turn the steering wheel several
times while the vehicle is not moving so that the
temperature of the fluid rises to approximately 50 - 60_C.
3. The engine should be idling.
4. Disconnect the connection of the connector for the oil
pressure switch, and set an ohmmeter in position.
5. Gradually close the shut-off valve of the pressure gauge
and increase the hydraulic pressure, then check whether
or not the hydraulic pressure that activates the switch
is the standard value.
Standard value: 1.8 - 2.4 MPa
6. Gradually open the shut-off valve and reduce the hydraulic
pressure; then check whether or not the hydraulic pressure
that deactivates the switch is the standard value.
Standard value: 1.0 - 2.4 MPa
7. Remove the special tools, and then tighten the pressure
hose to the specified torque.
Tightening torque: 18±3 N·m
8. Bleed the system.
BALL JOINT DUST COVER CHECK
1. Check the dust cover for cracks or damage by pushing
it with finger.
2. If the dust cover is cracked or damaged, replace the
tie rod end.
NOTE
Cracks or damage of the dust cover may cause damage
of the ball joint.

12. Turn the vacuum pump adaptor switch to the R134a side
to start the vacuum pump.
Caution
Do not operate the compressor for evacuation.
13. Evacuate to a vacuum reading of 100 kPa or higher (takes
approx. 10 minutes).
14. Turn the vacuum pump adaptor switch OFF and allow
to stand it for 5 minutes.
Caution
Do not operate the compressor in the vacuum
condition; damage may occur.
15. Carry out a leak test. (Good if the negative pressure
does not drop.)
Caution
If the negative pressure drops, increase the tightness
of the connections, and then repeat the evacuation
procedure from step (12).
16. With the handle turned back all the way (valve open),
install the charging valve to the service can.
17. Turn the handle of the adaptor valve back all the way
(valve closed), remove it from the gauge manifold and
install the service can.
18. Tighten the handle of the charging valve (valve closed)
to puncture the service can.
19. Turn the handle of the charging valve back (valve open)
and tighten the handle of the adaptor valve (valve open) to
charge the system with refrigerant.
Caution
If the service can is inverted, liquid refrigerant may
be drawn into the compressor damaging it by liquid
compression. Keep the service can upright to ensure
that refrigerant is charged in gas state.
20. If the refrigerant is not drawn in, turn the handle of the
adaptor valve back all the way (valve closed).
21. Check for gas leaks using a leak detector.
If a gas leak is detected, re-tighten the connections, and
then repeat the charging procedure from evacuation in
step (12).
Caution
The leak detector for R-134a should be used.
22. Start the engine.
23. Operate the A/C and set to the lowest temperature (MAX.
COOL).

24. Fix the engine speed at 1,500 r/min.
25. Tighten the handle of the adaptor valve (valve open)
to charge the required volume of refrigerant.
Caution
If the service can is inverted, liquid refrigerant may
be drawn into the compressor damaging it by liquid
compression. Keep the service can upright to ensure
that refrigerant is charged in gas state.
26. After charging with refrigerant, turn the handle of the
adaptor valve back all the way (valve closed).
27. Tighten the charging valve handle (valve closed).
Remove the quick joint (for low-pressure) from the
low-pressure service valve.
NOTE
If the service can is not emptied completely, keep the
handles of the charging valve and adaptor valve closed
for the next charging.
CORRECTING LOW REFRIGERANT LEVEL IN
CASE THE SERVICE CAN IN USED
1. Install the charge valve with the handle turned all the
way back (valve open) to the service can.
2. Install the adaptor valve with the handle turned all the
way back (valve close) to the charging valve.
3. Connect the charging hose (blue) to the adaptor valve.
4. Connect the charging hose (blue) to the quick joint (for
low-pressure).
5. Tighten the handle of the charge valve (valve close),
and pierce the service can.
6. Turn the handle of the adaptor valve to bleed the air.
7. Install the quick joint (for low-pressure) to the low-pressure
service valve.
NOTE
The low-pressure service valve should be connected to
the suction hose.

8. Start the engine.
9. Operate the air conditioner and set at the lowest
temperature (MAX. COOL).
10. Fix the engine speed at 1,500 r/min.
11. Tighten the handle of the adaptor valve (valve open),
and replenish refrigerant while checking the quantity
through the sight glass.
Caution
If the service can is inverted, liquid refrigerant may
be draw into the compressor damaging it by liquid
compression. Keep the service can upright to ensure
that refrigerant is changed in gas state.
12. After replenishing is completed, turn the handle of the
adaptor valve all the way back (valve close), and remove
the quick joint.
NOTE
When there is remainder of refrigerant in the service can,
keep it for next use with the charge value and the valve
of the adaptor valve being closed.
DISCHARGING SYSTEM
Use the refrigerant recovery unit to discharge refrigerant gas
from the system.
NOTE : Refer to the Refrigerant Recovery and Recycling
Unit Instruction Manual for operation of the unit.
REFILLING OF OIL IN THE A/C SYSTEM
Too little oil will provide inadequate compressor lubrication
and cause a compressor failure. Too much oil will increase
discharge air temperature.
When a compressor is installed at the factory, it contains
130 cm
3of refrigerant oil. While the A/C system is in operation,
the oil is carried through the entire system by the refrigerant.
Some of this oil will be trapped and retained in various parts
of the system.
When the following system components are changed, it is
necessary to add oil to the system to replace the oil being
removed with the component.
Compressor oil: SUN PAG 56

PERFORMANCE TEST
1. The vehicles to be tested should be in a place that is
not in direct sunlight.
2. Close the high and low-pressure valve of the gauge
manifold.
3. Connect the charging hose (blue) to the low-pressure
valve and connect the charging hose (red) to the
high-pressure valve of the gauge manifold.
4. Install the quick joint (for low-pressure) to the charging
hose (blue), and connect the quick joint (for high-pressure)
to the charging hose (red).
5. Connect the quick joint (for low-pressure) to the
low-pressure service valve and connect the quick joint
(for high-pressure) to the high-pressure service valve.
NOTE
The high-pressure service valve is on liquid pipe A and the
low-pressure service valve is on the suction hose.
Caution
To connect the quick joint, press section “A” firmly
against the service valve until a click is heard.
When connecting, run your hand along the hose while
pressing to ensure that there are no bends in the
hose.
6. Start the engine.
7. Set the controls to the A/C as follows:
DA/C switch: A/C - ON position
DMode selection: Face position
DTemperature control: Max. cooling position
DAir selection: Recirculation position
DBlower switch: HI (Fast) position
8. Keep engine speed to idling speed with A/C clutch engaged.
9. Engine should be warmed up with doors and all windows
opened.
10. Insert a thermometer in the center A/C outlet and operate
the engine for 20 minutes.
11. Note the discharge air temperature.
NOTE
If the clutch cycles, take the reading before the clutch
disengages.

To prevent the entry of dust or other foreign bodies, plug
the dismantled hose and the nipples of the expansion valves.
Caution
As the compressor oil and receiver are highly moisture
absorbent, use a non-porous material to plug the hose
and nipples.
