If possible, drive the vehicle with the customer until the noise is duplicated. Note any additional information on
the Diagnostic Worksheet regarding the conditions or location of the noise. This information can be used to
duplicate the same conditions when the repair is reconfirmed.
If the noise can be duplicated easily during the test drive, to help identify the source of the noise, try to dupli-
cate the noise with the vehicle stopped by doing one or all of the following:
1) Close a door.
2) Tap or push/pull around the area where the noise appears to be coming from.
3) Rev the engine.
4) Use a floor jack to recreate vehicle “twist”.
5) At idle, apply engine load (electrical load, half-clutch on M/T model, drive position on A/T model).
6) Raise the vehicle on a hoist and hit a tire with a rubber hammer.
Drive the vehicle and attempt to duplicate the conditions the customer states exist when the noise occurs.
If it is difficult to duplicate the noise, drive the vehicle slowly on an undulating or rough road to stress the
vehicle body.
LOCATE THE NOISE AND IDENTIFY THE ROOT CAUSE
1. Narrow down the noise to a general area. To help pinpoint the source of the noise, use a listening tool
(Engine Ear or mechanics stethoscope).
2. Narrow down the noise to a more specific area and identify the cause of the noise by:
Removing the components in the area that is are suspected to be the cause of the noise.
Do not use too much force when removing clips and fasteners, otherwise clips and fastener can be broken
or lost during the repair, resulting in the creation of new noise.
Tapping or pushing/pulling the component that is are suspected to be the cause of the noise.
Do not tap or push/pull the component with excessive force, otherwise the noise will be eliminated only tem-
porarily.
Feeling for a vibration by hand by touching the component(s) that is are suspected to be the cause of the
noise.
Placing a piece of paper between components that is are suspected to be the cause of the noise.
Looking for loose components and contact marks.
Refer to GW-4, "
Inspection Procedure".
REPAIR THE CAUSE
If the cause is a loose component, tighten the component securely.
If the cause is insufficient clearance between components:
- Separate components by repositioning or loosening and retightening the component, if possible.
- Insulate components with a suitable insulator such as urethane pads, foam blocks, felt cloth tape or ure-
thane tape. These insulators are available through the authorized Nissan Parts Department.
CAUTION:
Never use excessive force as many components are constructed of plastic and may be damaged.
NOTE:
URETHANE PADS
Insulates connectors, harness, etc.
INSULATOR (Foam blocks)
Insulates components from contact. Can be used to fill space behind a panel.
INSULATOR (Light foam block)
FELT CLOTHTAPE
Used to insulate where movement does not occur. Ideal for instrument panel applications.
The following materials, not available through NISSAN Parts Department, can also be used to repair
squeaks and rattles.
UHMW(TEFLON) TAPE
Insulates where slight movement is present. Ideal for instrument panel applications.
SILICONE GREASE
Used in place of UHMW tape that is be visible or does not fit.
Note: Will only last a few months.
SILICONE SPRAY
Used when grease cannot be applied.
DUCT TAPE
Used to eliminate movement.

CAUTION:
Plug all openings to prevent moisture and foreign matter from entering.
Store it in the same way at it is when mounted on the car when the compressor is removed.
Follow “Maintenance of Lubricant Quantity in Compressor” exactly when replacing or repairing
compressor. Refer to HA-28, "
Maintenance of Lubricant Quantity".
Keep friction surfaces between clutch and pulley clean. Wipe it off by using a clean waste cloth
moistened with thinner if the surface is contaminated with lubricant.
Turn the compressor shaft by hand more than five turns in both directions after compressor service
operation. This distributes equally lubricant inside the compressor. Let the engine idle and operate
the compressor for one hour after the compressor is installed.
Apply voltage to the new one and check for normal operation after replacing the compressor magnet
clutch.

9. Disconnect the connector (A) and remove the harness clip (B)
from compressor.
10. Remove mounting bolts (A), and then move oil cooler to a position where it dose not inhibit work.
11. Remove mounting bolts (B), and then remove compressor (1) from the lower side of the vehicle.
INSTALLATION
Installation is basically the reverse order of removal.
CAUTION:
Replace O-rings with new ones. Then apply compressor oil to them when installing.
Check for leakages when recharging refrigerant.
Check tension of the drive belt after installing compressor. Refer to EM-12, "
Checking".
InspectionINFOID:0000000003839904
CHECK DISC TO PULLEY CLEARANCE
1. Check the clearance (B) between pulley assembly (1) and clutch
disc (2) along the entire periphery with a feeler gauge (A).
Replace compressor if specified clearance is not obtained.
