REFRIGERANT LEVEL TEST THROUGH
PERFORMANCE TEST
1. Start the engine.
2. Turn on the A/C switch, and set the A/C control to MAX.
COOL.
3. Adjust the engine speed to 1,500 r/min.
4. Check the refrigerant level (bubble state) through the
sight glass.
ItemState
Insufficient refriger-
antMany bubbles are seen. If refrigerant
is extremely low, it appears white.
Sufficient or excess
refrigerantNo bubbles are seen
NOTE
1. If insufficient, replenish the refrigerant as follows.
a) Replenish until bubbles disappear from the sight
glass.
b) After the bubbles disappear from the sight glass,
replenish 100g of refrigerant.
2. If excessive, replenish the refrigerant as follows.
a) Drain the refrigerant until bubbles can be seen
through the sight glass.
b) Replenish until bubbles disappear from the sight
glass.
c) After the bubbles disappear from the sight glass,
replenish 100g of refrigerant.
MAGNETIC CLUTCH TEST
1. Disconnect the connector to the magnetic clutch.
2. Connect battery (+) voltage directly to the connector for
the magnetic clutch.
3. If the magnetic clutch is normal, there will be ”click”. If
the pulley and armature do not make contact (’click’),
there is a malfunction.
RECEIVER DRIER TEST
Operate the unit and check the piping temperature by touching
the receiver drier outlet and inlet.
If there is a difference in the temperatures, the receiver drier
is restricted.
Replace the receiver drier.
