IdentificationNBHA0112IDENTIFICATION LABEL FOR VEHICLENBHA0112S01Vehicles with factory installed fluorescent dye have this identifica-
tion label on the under side of hood.
NOTE:
Vehicles with factory installed fluorescent dye have a green label.
Vehicles without factory installed fluorescent dye have a blue label.
Precautions for Refrigerant ConnectionNBHA0004A new type refrigerant connection has been introduced to all refrigerant lines except the following location.
IExpansion valve to cooling unit
FEATURES OF NEW TYPE REFRIGERANT CONNECTIONNBHA0004S01IThe O-ring has been relocated. It has also been provided with a groove for proper installation. This elimi-
nates the chance of the O-ring being caught in, or damaged by, the mating part. The sealing direction of
the O-ring is now set vertically in relation to the contacting surface of the mating part to improve sealing
characteristics.
IThe reaction force of the O-ring will not occur in the direction that causes the joint to pull out, thereby
facilitating piping connections.

HA-4

Both High- and Low-pressure Sides are Too High.NBHA0032S01
Gauge indication Refrigerant cycle Probable cause Corrective action
Both high- and low-pressure sides
are too high.
AC359A
IPressure is reduced soon
after water is splashed on
condenser.Excessive refrigerant charge
in refrigeration cycleReduce refrigerant until
specified pressure is
obtained.
Air suction by cooling fan is
insufficient.Insufficient condenser cool-
ing performance
"
1. Condenser fins are
clogged.
2. Improper fan rotation of
cooling fanIClean condenser.
ICheck and repair cooling
fan as necessary.
ILow-pressure pipe is not
cold.
IWhen compressor is
stopped high-pressure
value quickly drops by
approximately 196 kPa (2
kg/cm
2, 28 psi). It then
decreases gradually there-
after.Poor heat exchange in con-
denser
(After compressor operation
stops, high pressure
decreases too slowly.)
"
Air in refrigeration cycleEvacuate repeatedly and
recharge system.
Engine tends to overheat. Engine cooling systems mal-
function.Check and repair each
engine cooling system.
IAn area of the low-pres-
sure pipe is colder than
areas near the evaporator
outlet.
IPlates are sometimes cov-
ered with frost.IExcessive liquid refrigerant
on low-pressure side
IExcessive refrigerant dis-
charge flow
IExpansion valve is open a
little compared with the
specification.
"
1. Improper thermal valve
installation
2. Improper expansion valve
adjustmentReplace expansion valve.
High-pressure Side is Too High and Low-pressure Side is Too Low.NBHA0032S02
Gauge indication Refrigerant cycle Probable cause Corrective action
High-pressure side is too high and
low-pressure side is too low.
AC360A
Upper side of condenser and
high-pressure side are hot,
however, liquid tank is not so
hot.High-pressure tube or parts
located between compressor
and condenser are clogged
or crushed.ICheck and repair or
replace malfunctioning
parts.
ICheck lubricant for con-
tamination.

IPulley removal
Position the center pulley puller on the end of the drive shaft,
and remove the pulley assembly using any commercially avail-
able pulley puller.
To prevent the pulley groove from being deformed, the
puller claws should be positioned onto the edge of the
pulley assembly.
RHA125F
IRemove the field coil harness clip using a pair of pliers.

INSPECTIONNBHA0075Clutch DiscNBHA0075S01If the contact surface shows signs of damage due to excessive
heat, replace clutch disc and pulley.
PulleyNBHA0075S02Check the appearance of the pulley assembly. If the contact sur-
face of pulley shows signs of excessive grooving, replace clutch
disc and pulley. The contact surfaces of the pulley assembly should
be cleaned with a suitable solvent before reinstallation.

INSTALLATIONNBHA0076IInstall the field coil.
Be sure to align the coil's pin with the hole in the com-
pressor's front head.
IInstall the field coil harness clip using a screwdriver.
RHA143EA
IInstall the pulley assembly using the installer and a hand
press, and then install the snap ring using snap ring pliers.
RHA127F
IInstall the clutch disc on the drive shaft, together with the
original shim(s). Press the clutch disc down by hand.
RHA086E
IUsing the holder to prevent clutch disc rotation, tighten the bolt
to 14 N´m (1.4 kg-m, 10 ft-lb) torque.
After tightening the bolt, check that the pulley rotates
smoothly.
