Description
The A/C refrigerant lines and pipes are used to carry the refrigerant between the various A/C system components.
Any kinks or sharp bends in the refrigerant lines and hoses will reduce the capacity of the entire A/C system and can
reduce the flow of refrigerant within the system.
Operation
High pressure is produced in a refrigerant system when the A/C compressor is operating. Extreme care must be
exercised to make sure that each of the refrigerant system connections is pressure-tight and leak free. It is a good
practice to inspect all flexible hose refrigerant lines at least once a year to make sure they are in good condition and
properly routed. Depending on vehicle, model and market application, refrigerant lines are connected to each other or
other A/C system components with block-type or quick-connect type fittings. To ensure the integrity of the refrigerant
system, O-rings and/or gaskets may be used to seal the refrigerant system connections. The refrigerant lines and
hoses cannot be repaired and must be replaced if leaking or damaged.
WARNING!
The A/C system contains refrigerant under high pressure. Repairs should only be performed by qualified service
personnel. Serious or fatal injury may result from improper service procedures.
If accidental A/C system discharge occurs, ventilate the work area before resuming service. Large amounts of
refrigerant released in a closed work area will displace the oxygen and cause suffocation and serious or fatal
injury.
CAUTION:
Never add R-12 to a refrigerant system designed to use R-134a. Do not use R-12 equipment or
parts on an R-134a A/C system. These refrigerants are not compatible and damage to the A/C sys-
tem will result.
CAUTION:
Never use R-12 refrigerant oil in an A/C system designed to use R-134a refrigerant oil. These refrig-
erant oils are not compatible and damage to the A/C system will result.
CAUTION:
Do not run the engine with a vacuum pump in operation or with a vacuum present within the A/C
system. Failure to follow this caution will result in serious A/C compressor damage.
CAUTION:
Do not overcharge the refrigerant system. Overcharging will cause excessive compressor head
pressure and can cause compressor noise and A/C system failure.

Mechanical Problems
Possible locations or causes of insufficient heat:
•An obstructed cowl air intake.
• Obstructed heater system outlets.
• A blend door not functioning properly.
• Trapped air in system.
Temperature Control
If the heater outlet air temperature cannot be adjusted with the temperature control knob(s) on the A/C heater control
panel, the following could require service:
•The A/C heater control.
• The blend door actuator(s).
• The wire harness circuits for the A/C heater control or the blend door actuator(s).
• The blend door(s).
• Improper engine coolant temperature.
A/C Compressor Noise Testing
When investigating an A/C system related noise, you must first know the conditions under which the noise occurs.
These conditions include: weather, vehicle speed, transaxle in gear or neutral, engine speed, engine temperature,
and any other special conditions. Noises that develop during A/C operation can often be misleading. For example:
what sounds like a failed bearing, may be caused by loose bolts, nuts, mounting brackets or a loose compressor
assembly.
NOTE :
The A/C compressor must be replaced if any unusual noise is heard from the compressor itself.
NOTE :
Drive belts are speed sensitive. At different engine speeds and depending upon drive belt tension, drive belts can
develop noises that are mistaken for an A/C compressor noise. Improper drive belt tension can cause a misleading
noise when the compressor is operating at maximum displacement, which may not occur when the compressor is at
minimum displacement.
1. Select a quiet area for testing.
2. Duplicate the complaint conditions as much as possible.
3. Turn the A/C system On and Off several times to clearly identify any compressor noise.
4. Listen to the A/C compressor while it is operating at maximum and minimum displacement.
5. Probe the A/C compressor with an engine stethoscope or a long screwdriver with the handle held to your ear to better localize the source of the noise.
6. To duplicate high-ambient temperature conditions (high head pressure), restrict the air flow through the A/C con- denser. Install a manifold gauge set or a scan tool to ensure that the discharge pressure does not exceed 2600
kPa.
7. Check the condition of the accessory drive belt. NOTE: The A/C compressor must be replaced if the drive hub is broken or if the compressor shaft does not
rotate smoothly.
8. Check the compressor hub and pulley and bearing assembly. Ensure that the hub and pulley are properly aligned and that the pulley bearing is mounted securely to the A/C compressor.
9. Check the refrigerant system plumbing for incorrect routing, rubbing or interference, which can cause unusual noises. Also check the refrigerant lines and hoses for kinks or sharp bends that will restrict refrigerant flow, which
can cause noises.
10. Loosen all of the compressor mounting hardware and retighten. CAUTION: Do not run the engine with a vacuum pump in operation or with a vacuum present within the
A/C system. Failure to follow this caution will result in serious A/C compressor damage.
11. If the noise is from opening and closing the high pressure relief valve, recover, evacuate and recharge the refrig- erant system. If the high pressure relief valve still does not seat properly, replace the A/C compressor.

13. If a slugging condition still exists after replacing the A/C accumulator, replace the A/C compressor.
Refrigerant System Leaks
WARNING!
R-134a service equipment or vehicle A/C systems should not be pressure tested or leak tested with compressed
air. Mixture of air and R-134a can be combustible at elevated pressures. These mixtures are potentially danger-
ous and may result in fire or explosion causing property damage, personal injury or death. Avoid breathing A/C
refrigerant and lubricant vapor or mist. Exposure may irritate eyes, nose and throat. Use only approved service
equipment meeting SAE requirements to discharge an R-134a system. If accidental system discharge occurs,
ventilate work area before resuming service.
NOTE :
If the A/C refrigerant system charge is empty or low, a leak in the A/C system is likely. Inspect all A/C lines, fittings
and components for an oily residue. Oil residue can be an indicator of an A/C system leak location.
NOTE :
The only way to correctly determine if the refrigerant system is fully charged with R-134a is to completely evacuate
and recharge the A/C system.
Refrigerant System Empty
1. Evacuate the refrigerant system to the lowest degree of vacuum possible. Determine if the system holds a vac- uum for 15 minutes. If vacuum is held, a leak is probably not present. If system will not maintain vacuum level,
proceed to STEP 2.
2. Prepare and dispense 0.3 kilograms of R-134a refrigerant into the evacuated refrigerant system and proceed to STEP 1 of the System Low procedure.
Refrigerant System Low
1. Position the vehicle in a wind-free work area. This will aid in detecting small leaks.
2. Operate the heating-A/C system with the engine at idle under the following conditions for at least 5 minutes:Doors or windows open, transaxle in Park or Neutral with the parking brake set (depending on application), A/C-
Heater controls set to outside air, full cool, panel mode, high blower and with A/C compressor engaged.
3. Shut the vehicle Off and wait2-7minutes. Then use an electronic leak detector that is designed to detect R-134a refrigerant and search for leaks. Fittings, lines or components that appear to be oily usually indicate a
refrigerant leak. To inspect the A/C evaporator for leaks, insert the leak detector probe into the drain tube open-
ing or an air outlet. A dye for R-134a is available to aid in leak detection. Use only approved refrigerant dye.
CAUTION:
A leak detector only designed for R-12 refrigerant will not detect leaks in an R-134a refrigerant sys-
tem.

connectors.
NOTE: The refrigerant recovery/recycling station
connectors are connected to the vehicle in the fol-
lowing way:
• BLUE connector (1) is connected to the A/C low side
fitting.
• RED connector (2) is connected to the A/C high side
fitting.
A/C System Evacuation
CAUTION:
Do NOT run the engine with a vacuum pump in operation or with a vacuum present within the A/C
system. Failure to follow this caution will result in serious A/C compressor damage.
NOTE :
Special effort must be used to prevent moisture from entering the A/C system oil. Moisture in the oil is very difficult
to remove and will cause a reliability problem with the A/C compressor.
If the refrigerant system has been open to the atmosphere, it must be evacuated before the system can be filled.
Moisture and air mixed with the refrigerant will raise the compressor high pressure above acceptable operating lev-
els. This will reduce the performance of the A/C system and damage the A/C compressor. Moisture will boil at near
room temperature when exposed to vacuum.
NOTE :
When connecting the service equipment coupling to the line fitting, verify that the valve of the coupling is fully closed.
This will reduce the amount of effort required to make the connection.
To evacuate the refrigerant system:
1. With the engine OFF, connect a suitable charging station, refrigerant recovery machine or a manifold gauge set with vacuum pump and refrigerant recovery equipment. Do not operate the engine with a vacuum on the A/C
system.
2. Open the suction and discharge valves and start the vacuum pump. The vacuum pump should run a minimum of 45 minutes prior to charge to eliminate all moisture in system. When the suction gauge reads to the lowest
degree of vacuum possible for 30 minutes, close all valves and turn off vacuum pump. If the system fails to
reach specified vacuum, the refrigerant system likely has a leak that must be corrected. If the refrigerant system
maintains specified vacuum for at least 30 minutes, start the vacuum pump, open the suction and discharge
valves. Then allow the system to evacuate an additional 10 minutes.
3. Close all valves.
4. Turn off and disconnect the vacuum pump.
5. Charge the refrigerant system.
A/C System Recharge
After all refrigerant system leaks have been repaired and the refrigerant system has been evacuated, a refrigerant
charge can be injected into the system.
CAUTION:
A small amount of refrigerant oil is removed from the A/C system each time the refrigerant system
is recovered and evacuated. Before charging the A/C system, you MUST replenish any oil lost dur-
ing the recovery process.
1. Evacuate the refrigerant system (See A/C System Evacuation and Recharge in Section 13 Heating & Air Con- ditioning).
