Refrigerant Leak Check
HVAC SYSTEM (HEATER, VENTILATOR AND A/C)
5. Refrigerant Leak Check
A: INSPECTION
1) At engine speed below 1500rpm, operate the A/
C system for approx. 10 minutes, and confirm that
the high-side pressure shows at least 690 kPa
(7.03 kg/cm2, 100 psi). Then stop the engine to
start the leak test.
2) Starting from the connection between high-pres-
sure pipe and evaporator, check the system for
leaks along the high-pressure side through the
compressor. The following items must be checked
thoroughly.
3) Check the joint and seam between pressure
switch (dual switch) and high-pressure pipe.
4) Check the connections between condenser and
pipes, and welded joints on the condenser.
The leak tester may detect the oil on the condenser
fins as a leak.
5) Check the joint between compressor and hoses.
6) Check the machined area of the compressor and
other joints on the compressor.
7) Check the compressor shaft seal at the area
near the center of compressor clutch pulley.
Some shaft seals show a slight amount of leakage,
about 3 g (0.1 oz) per year. This is not a problem.
8) Starting from the connection between low-pres-
sure pipe and evaporator, check the system for
leakage along the low-pressure side through the
compressor. The following items must be checked
thoroughly.
•Connection between 2 parts
•Connection between pipe and plate
•Connection between pipes
9) Visually check the rubber area of the flexible
hose for cracks.
Check the entire length of the flexible hose, espe-
cially the connection with the metal hose end.
CAUTION:
Carefully check the external surface of hoses
and tubes at approx. 25 mm (0.98 in) per sec-
ond.
10) Disconnect the drain hose from the heater
case, and check the hose end for at least 10 sec-
onds.
After the test is finished, reconnect the drain hose.
11) Turn the ignition key to the ON position, and
run the blower at high speed for approx. 1 minute.
Stop the blower to check the ventilation grill on the
instrument panel. While moving the tester closer to
the grill, run the blower for 1 or 2 seconds, then stop
it. Check the grill at that point for at least 10 sec-
onds.
12) Check the valve in the service port.
13) Visually check the rubber seal in the service
port cap.

1) Turn the ignition switch from OFF to ACC,
and wait for 2 seconds.
2) Start the engine with the auto switch and
FRESH/RECIRC switch pressed.
NOTE:
Self-diagnosis can also be performed with igni-
tion switch ON, but start the engine because
observing the magnet clutch operation is diffi-
cult.

Wiper Blade
WIPER AND WASHER SYSTEMS
4. Wiper Blade
A: REMOVAL
CAUTION:
When replacing the wiper blade, if standing up
the wiper arm, be sure to stand up the driver’s
side wiper arm first, and then passenger’s side
wiper arm next. Also, when putting the wiper
arms back, be sure to start with passenger’s
side first, then driver’s side next. Doing this in
the reverse order may result in the driver’s side
wiper blade hitting the passenger’s side wiper
arm and causing damage.
1. FRONT
While pushing the locking clip to the direction of the
arrow, pull out and remove the blade from the arm.
2. REAR
Turn the blade in the direction of arrow (A) and re-
move it from arm.
B: INSTALLATION
1) Install in the reverse order of removal.
2) Confirm that the clip is locked securely.
C: DISASSEMBLY
1. FRONT
Pull side (A) of the wiper rubber stopper and re-
move the rubber from the blade assembly.
2. REAR
Pull the wiper rubber top slightly from stopper (A)
and pull out completely.
