SYMPTOM: Insufficient cooling
INSPECTION FLOW
1.CONFIRM SYMPTOM BY PERFORMING OPER
ATIONAL CHECK - TEMPERATURE DECREASE
1. Press the AUTO switch.
2. Turn temperature control dial (driver) counterclockwise until 16 °C (60 °F) is displayed.
3. Check for cold air at discharge air outlets.
Can the symptom be duplicated?
YES >> GO TO 3.
NO >> GO TO 2.
2.CHECK FOR ANY SYMPTOMS
Perform a complete operational check for any symptoms. Refer to HAC-4, "
Operational Check (Front)".
Does another symptom exist?
YES >> Refer to HAC-109, "SymptomMatrixChart".
NO >> System OK.
3.CHECK FOR SERVICE BULLETINS
Check for any service bulletins.
>> GO TO 4.
4.PERFORM SELF-DIAGNOSIS
Perform self-diagnosis Refer to HAC-23, "
A/C Auto Amp. Self-Diagnosis".
Is the inspection result normal?
YES >> GO TO 5.
NO >> Refer to HAC-24, "
A/C System Self-Diagnosis Code Chart".
5.CHECK DRIVE BELTS
Check compressor belt tension. Refer to EM-13, "
Checking Drive Belts".
Is the inspection result normal?
OK >> GO TO 6.
NG >> Adjust or replace compressor belt. Refer to EM-13, "
Removal and Installation".
6.CHECK AIR MIX DOOR OPERATION
Check and verify air mix door mechanism for smooth operation. Refer to HAC-32, "
Air Mix Door Motor Compo-
nent Function Check".
Does air mix door operate correctly?
YES >> GO TO 7.
NO >> Check air mix door motor circuit. Refer to HAC-33, "
Air Mix Door Motor (Driver) Diagnosis Proce-
dure" or HAC-36, "Air Mix Door Motor (Passenger) Diagnosis Procedure".
7.CHECK COOLING FAN MOTOR OPERATION
Check and verify cooling fan motor for smooth operation. Refer to EC-388, "
Component Inspection".
Does cooling fan motor operate correctly?
YES >> GO TO 8.
NO >> Check cooling fan motor. Refer to EC-388, "
Diagnosis Procedure".
8.CHECK WATER VALVE OPERATION
Check and verify water valve for smooth operation. Refer to HAC-77, "
Description".
Does water valve operate correctly?
YES >> GO TO 9.

9.CHECK RECOVERY/RECYCLING EQUIPMENT BEFORE USAGE
Check recovery/recycling equipment befor e connecting to vehicle. Verify there is no pressure in the recovery/
recycling equipment by checking the gauges. If pressure exists, recover refrigerant from equipment lines.
>> GO TO 10.
10.CHECK REFRIGERANT PURITY
1. Connect recovery/recycling equipment to vehicle.
2. Confirm refrigerant purity in supply tank us ing recovery/recycling and refrigerant identifier.
Is the inspection result normal?
YES >> GO TO 11.
NO >> Check contaminated refrigerant. Refer to HAC-123, "
Working with HFC-134a (R-134a)".
11 .CHECK FOR EVAPORATOR FREEZE UP
Start engine and run A/C. Check for evaporator freeze up.
Does evaporator freeze up?
YES >> Perform performance test diagnoses. Refer to HAC-111, "Diagnostic Work Flow".
NO >> GO TO 12.
12.CHECK REFRIGERANT PRESSURE
Check refrigerant pressure with manifold gauge connected. Refer to HAC-113, "
Performance Chart".
Is the inspection result normal?
YES >> Perform performance test diagnoses. Refer to HAC-111, "Diagnostic Work Flow".
NO >> GO TO 13.
13.CHECK AIR DUCTS
Check ducts for air leaks.
Is the inspection result normal?
YES >> System OK.
NO >> Repair air leaks.
