2008 GEELY FC cooling

Air conditioner--Refrigerant
zThe pressure of high and
low pressure end is high.
zThere is no bubble on
window when engine
speed decreases.
zToo much refrigerant in
system incurs this.
zHeat dispersion of con-
denser is bad.(1)Clean the condenser.
(2)Check the function of
cooling fan.
(3)If those two items above
are normal, check the re-
frigerant quantity. Fill
applicable refrigerant.
zFilled refrigerant is too
much.
zHeat dispersion of con-
denser is bad¡ú¡ú
¡ú¡ú
¡úheat dis-
persion sheet of con-
denser is obstructed or fan
engine has malfunction.
Phenomenon Possible reason Diagnose Method
State: cooling degree is not enough.
zThe pressure of high and
low pressure end is high.
zPipeline of low pressure
end is too hot to contact.
zThere is bubble on
window.Air enters cooling system. (1)Check whether the Re-
frigerant oil is too dirt or
lack.
(2)Take our vacuum and fill
new refrigerant.
zThere is air in cooling
system.
zIt does not take out
vacuum completely.
Phenomenon Possible reason Diagnose Method
State: cooling degree is not enough.(6) Refrigerant is too much or the radiating fin of condenser is bad
(7) Air enters cooling system
Note: i f cooling system is
opened, and it does not
take out vacuum when
filling refrigerant, this
state will happen.

Air conditioner--Refrigerant
zThe pressure of high and low
pressure end is high.
zPipeline of low pressure end
frosts or dews heavily.Expansion valve has
malfunction.Check the expansion valve. zRefrigerant in low pressure
pipeline is too much.
zOpen degree of expansion
valve is too big.
Phenomenon Possible reason Diagnose Method
State: cooling degree is not enough
zThe pressure of low pressure
end is too high.
zThe pressure of high pres-
sure end is too low.There is inner leakage in
compressor.Repair or change the
compressor. zCompressor is bad.
zExpansion valve leaks or
sliding part is damaged.
Phenomenon Possible reason Diagnose Method
State: not cool(8) Expansion valve is bad
(9) Not cool

Change
1. Reclaim HFC-134a (R134a)
(a) Turn A/C switch to ON.
(b) Keep the engine speed at 1000 rpm, and rotate cooling compressor for 5 to 6 minutes to make
refrigerant cycle, this could collect the Refrigerant oil in each part in cooling compressor as possible.
(c) Extinguish the engine.
(d) Drain the refrigerant.
2. Fill refrigerant
(a) Use vacuum pump to take out vacuum.
(b) Fill the refrigerant HFC-134a (R134a)
Standard quantity: 660 ± 10g
3. Heat the engine
4. Check whether the refrigerant leaks.

57. Assemble control cable of air mixing flow choke
(manual air conditioner).
(a) Connect control cable of air mixing flow choke to air condi-
tioner control assembly.
(b) Set up drag arm at “MAX>COOL” position.
(c) Assemble inner pull cable terminal to control lever.
(d) Press down lightly the fixed clamp of pull cable by the ar-
row direction in left figure, then assemble exterior pull cable
to fixed clamp.

Hint:Operate temperature control lever, check whether the control lever keep silent and does
not return at the position of “MAX.COOL” and “MAX.HOT”.
(e) Disassemble control cable of air mixing flow choke from air conditioner control assembly.
58. Assemble upper panel assembly.
59. Assemble air conditioner control assembly.
60. Assemble helix cable.
61. Assemble steering wheel.
62. Check whether the steering wheel position is right.
63. Check horn button assembly.
64. Assemble horn button assembly.
65. Check SRS warning light.
66. Assemble refrigerant No.1 low pressure hose.
(a) Spread Refrigerant oil on new O-shape loop and assemble
it on hose.
(b) Assemble refrigerant No.1 low pressure hose and fixed
clamp.
Hint:After installation, check the fixed situation of
pipeline fixed clamp claw.
67. Assemble refrigerant liquid pipe A.
(a) Spread Refrigerant oil on new O-shape loop and assemble it on hose.
(b) Assemble refrigerant liquid pipe A and fixed clamp.
Hint: After installation, check the fixed situation of pipeline fixed clamp claw.
68. Add cooling water.
69. Heat the engine.
70. Check whether the cooling water leaks.
71. Fill the refrigerant, regulated quantity: 660 ± 10g.
72. Check whether the refrigerant leaks.
