Other gases in the work area or substances on the A/C components, for example, anti-freeze, windshield
washer fluid, solvents and oils, may falsely trigger the leak detector. Make sure the surfaces to be checked are
clean.
Clean with a dry cloth or blow off with shop air.
Do not allow the sensor tip of the detector to contact with any substance. This can also cause false readings
and may damage the detector.
Dye InjectionINFOID:0000000005930886
(This procedure is only necessary when recharging t he system or when the compressor has seized and was
replaced.)
1. Check A/C system static (at rest) pressure. Pres sure must be at least 345 kPa (3.45 bar, 3.52 kg/cm
2, 50
psi).
2. Pour one bottle (1/4 ounce / 7.4 cc) of the A/C refrigerant dye into the injector tool J-41459.
3. Connect the injector tool to the A/C low-pressure side service fitting.
4. Start engine and switch A/C ON.
5. When the A/C operating (compressor running), inject one bottle (1/4 ounce / 7.4 cc) of fluorescent dye
through the low-pressure service valve using dye injector tool J-41459 (refer to the manufacture’s operat-
ing instructions).
6. With the engine still running, disconnect the injector tool from the service fitting.
CAUTION:
Be careful the A/C system or replacing a componen t, pour the dye directly into the open system
connection and proceed wi th the service procedures.
7. Operate the A/C system for a minimum of 20 minutes to mix the dye with the system oil. Depending on the
leak size, operating conditions and location of the leak , it may take from minutes to days for the dye to
penetrate a leak and become visible.
Electronic Refrigerant Leak DetectorINFOID:0000000005930887
PRECAUTIONS FOR HANDLING LEAK DETECTOR
When performing a refrigerant leak check, use an A/C electrical leak
detector (SST) or equivalent. Ensure that the instrument is calibrated
and set properly per the operating instructions.
The leak detector is a delicate device. In order to use the leak detec-
tor properly, read the operating instructions and perform any speci-
fied maintenance.
1. Position probe approximately 5 mm (3/16 in) away from point to
be checked.

2. When testing, circle each fitting completely with probe.
3. Move probe along component approximately 25 to 50 mm (1 to2 in) per second.
CHECKING PROCEDURE
To prevent inaccurate or false readings, make sure there is no refrigerant vapor, shop chemicals, or cigarette
smoke in the vicinity of the vehicle. Perform the leak test in calm area (low air/wind movement) so that the
leaking refrigerant is not dispersed.
1. Turn engine OFF.
2. Connect a suitable A/C manifold gauge set to the A/C service ports.
3. Check if the A/C refrigerant pressure is at least 345 kPa (3.45 bar, 3.52 kg/cm
2, 50 psi) above 16°C. If less
than specification, recover/evacuate and recharge the system with the specified amount of refrigerant.
NOTE:
At temperatures below 16 °C, leaks may not be detected since t he system may not reach 345 kPa (3.45
bar, 3.52 kg/cm
2, 50 psi).
4. Perform the leak test from the high-pressure side (compressor dischar ge a to evaporator inlet f) to the
low-pressure side (evaporator drain hose g to shaft seal k). Refer to MTC-76, "
Component". Perform a
leak check for the following areas carefully. Clean the component to be checked and move the leak
detected probe completely around the connection/component.
• Compressor Check the fitting of high- and low-pressure flexible hoses, relief valve and shaft seal.
• Condenser Check the fitting of high-pressure flexible hose and pipe, refrigerant pressure sensor.
• Liquid tank Check the refrigerant connection.
• Service valves
Check all around the service valves. Ensure service valve caps are secured on the service valves (to
prevent leaks).
NOTE:
After removing A/C manifold gauge set from service valves, wipe any residue from valves to prevent any
false readings by leak detector.
• Cooling unit (Evaporator)
With engine OFF, turn blower fan on “High” for at l east 15 seconds to dissipate any refrigerant trace in
the cooling unit. Wait a minimum of 10 minutes accumulation time (refer to the manufacturer’s recom-
mended procedure for actual wait time) before insert ing the leak detector probe into the drain hose.
Keep the probe inserted for at least 10 seconds. Use c aution not to contaminate the probe tip with water
or dirt that may be in the drain hose.
5. If a leak detector detects a leak, verify at least once by blowing compressed air into area of suspected
leak, then repeat check as outlined above.
