1BÐ74 AIR CONDITIONING
FUNCTIONS AND FEATURES
¥ Automatic interior temperature control
This function enables to maintain the interior temperature at the level specified from the temperature
control switch despite of changes in factors such as vehicle speeds, outside air temperature and number
of passengers.
¥ Maximum cooling and heating function
You can select FC (Full cool, namely maximum cooling temperature) or FH (Full heat, maximum heating
temperature) from the temperature control lever.
¥ Automatic air flow control
Air flow is automatically and consecutively fine tuned according to the specified interior temperature and
changes in aperture of the heater unit mix door.
¥ Mode (blow port) control
This function automatically selects either one of the VENT, BI-LEVEL, FOOT or DEP mode for the blow
port according to changes of temperature on the blow port. Using the mode switch allows you to select a
desired blow port manually.
¥ Intake (switching between the fresh air intake and circulation of interior air) control
The intake (switching between fresh air intake and circulation of interior air) mode automatically selects
either FRESH (fresh air intake), MIX or RECIRC (interior air circulation) according to changes of the blow
port temperature. Using the intake switch allows you to select a desired intake port manually (in the
manual operation, FRESH and RECIRC modes alone are available). Pressing the DEF (defrost) mode
switch selects the FRESH (fresh air intake).
¥ Cooler start-up timing control
This function is used for maintaining the air flow at "LOW" level until the evaporator is sufficiently cooled
down. It is intended to prevent a large volume of hot air being blowing into inside of a vehicle when the
cooler is turned on in hot summer season.
¥ Heater start-up timing control
This function is used for maintained the air flow at "LOW" level and also for maintaining the defrost
mode until temperature of coolant in the heater core is sufficiently heated. It is intended to prevent a
large volume of cool air being blown into inside of a vehicle when the heater is turned on in cold winter
season.
¥ Solar radiation quantity offset control
The photodiode on the solar radiation sensor determines solar radiation quantity accurately to offset
interior temperature quickly.
¥ Switch position storing function
This function is used for storing switch positions being selected in the immediately preceding operation,
namely the last time the ignition has been turned off. It simplifies the setup procedures when restarting
the system.
¥ Self-diagnosis function
The self-diagnosis function turned on from the panel switch makes your troubleshooting easier (for detail
of this function, refer to the section titled "Self-Diagnosis").

COMPRESSOR OVERHAUL 1D Ð 5
Checking and Adjusting for Compressor
Replacement
150cc (4.2 Imp fl oz) of oil is charged in compressor
(service parts). So it is necessary to drain the proper
amount of oil from the new compressor.
1) Perform oil return operation.
2) Discharge refrigerant and remove the
compressor.
3) Drain the compressor oil and measure the
extracted oil.
4) Check the compressor oil for contamination.
5) Adjust oil level as required.

7) Check system operation.
CONTAMINATION OF COMPRESSOR OIL
Unlike engine oil, no cleaning agent is added to the
compressor oil. Even if the compressor runs for a
long period of time (approximately 1 season), the
oil never becomes contaminated as long as there is
nothing wrong with the compressor or its method
of use.
Inspect the extracted oil for any of the following
conditions:
·The capacity of the oil has increased.
·The oil has changed color to red.
·Foreign substances, metal powder, etc., are
present in the oil.
If any of these conditions exists, compressor oil is
contaminated. Whenever contaminated
compressor oil is discovered, the receiver/drier
must be replaced.
OIL RETURN OPERATION
There is close affinity between the oil and the
refrigerant. During normal operation, part of the oil
recirculates with the refrigerant in the system.
When checking the amount of oil in the system, or
replacing any component of the system, the
compressor must be run in advance for oil return
operation. The procedure is as follows:
1) Open the all doors and engine hood.
2) Start the engine and A/C switch is ÒONÓ and
Set the fan control knob at its highest position.
3) Run the compressor for more than 20 minutes
between 800 and 1,000 rpm in order to operate
the system.
4) Stop the engine.
REPLACEMENT OF COMPONENT PARTS
When replacing system component parts, supply
the following amount of oil to the component parts
to be installed.

Compressor Leak Testing (External and
Internal)
Bench-Check Procedure
1. Install test plate J-39893 on rear head of compressor.
2. Using Refrigerant Recovery System, attach center
hose of manifold gage set on charging station to a
refrigerant drum standing in an upright drum.
3. Connect charging station high and low pressure
lines to corresponding fittings on test plate J-39893.
Suction port (low-side) of compressor has large
internal opening. Discharge port (high-side) has
smaller internal opening into compressor and
deeper recess.
4. Open low pressure control, high pressure control
and refrigerant control on charging station to allow
refrigerant vapor to flow into compressor.
5. Using a leak detector, check for leaks at pressure
relief valve, rear head switch location, compressor
front and rear head seals, center cylinder seal,
through bolt head gaskets and compressor shaft
seal. After checking, shut off low pressure control
and high-pressure control on charging station.
6. If an external leak is present, perform the necessary
corrective measures and recheck for leaks to make
certain the leak has been connected.
7. Recover the refrigerant.
8. Disconnect both hoses from the test plate J-39893.
9. Add 90 ml (3 oz.) new PAG lubricant to the
compressor assembly. Rotate the complete
compressor assembly (not the crankshaft or drive
plate hub) slowly several turns to distribute oil to all
cylinder and piston areas.
10. Install a M9 ´1.25 threaded nut on the compressor
crankshaft if the drive plate and clutch assembly are
not installed.
11. Using a box-end wrench or socket and handle,
rotate the compressor crankshaft or clutch drive
plate on the crankshaft several turns to insure
piston assembly to cylinder wall lubrication.
12. Using Refrigerant Recovery System, connect the
charging station high-pressure line to the test plate
J-39893 high-side connector.
13. Using Refrigerant Recovery System, connect the
charging station low-pressure line to the low
pressure port of the test plate J-39893. Oil will drain
out of the compressor suction port if the compressor
is positioned with the suction port downward. (Component parts to be (Amount of Oil)

DRIVE LINE CONTROL SYSTEM (SHIFT ON THE FLY)
Normal Operation
The motor actuator mounted on transfer rear case is
driven by signal from 4WD switch on instrument panel.
After complete the connecting transfer front output gear
to, or disconnecting it from, front propeller shaft, conditionof the transfer position switch changes. The vacuum
solenoid valve (VSV) is driven by the signal from transfer
position switch and the vacuum actuator connects front
wheels to, or disconnect them from, front axles.

4B1±9 DRIVE LINE CONTROL SYSTEM (SHIFT ON THE FLY)
Retrial
The motor actuator starts transfer gear shifting after
signal from 4WD switch on instrument panel has been
received. But the shifting may be impossible in cold
weather or under high speed condition. When 2 seconds
have passed since transfer gear shifting started and the
transfer position switch dose not turn on (the gear
engagement is not completed), the motor reverses its
rotation for 1.2 seconds and tries again to shift transfergear. This procedure is repeated 3 times in maximum.
While this procedure, 4WD indicator lamp blinks by 2 Hz.
If the transfer position switch does not turn on after
aforementioned procedure has been repeated 3 times,
the gear shifting is stopped and 4WD indicator lamp's
blinking changes from 2Hz to 4Hz to notify driver that the
gear shifting is stopped. This blinking of indicator lamp
continues until 4WD switch is returned from 4WD to 2WD.

Warning at ª4Lº position :In view of the shifting
mechanism of transfer, the gear shifting from 4WD to
2WD at ª4Lº condition is impossible. Therefore, the
transfer position switch can not be turned off by 4WDswitch when vehicle is in ª4Lº condition. In the case this
condition continues for 2 seconds, the shifting to 2WD is
stopped and the indicator lamp's blinking changes from
2Hz to 4Hz to notify driver of wrong operation.

Diagnosis
Before Judging That Troubles Occur
(Unfaulty mode)
When Switching from 2WD to 4WD
1.In case that blinking frequency of the 4WD
indicator changes from 2Hz to 4Hz.
When heavy synchronization load is needed, the
motor actuator tries the shifting transfer gear three
times including the activation shifting. While the
motor actuator tries shifting, the indicator blinks by
2Hz. If the third shifting fails, the indicator's blinking
changes from 2Hz to 4Hz at the same time that the
motor actuator shifted back to 2WD.
Heavy synchronization load occurs by:

extremely lower temperature.

higher speed, rotation difference of wheels during
cornering.
Solution 1: Operate again after stop the vehicle or
slow down.
2.In case that the 4WD indicator continues blinking
by 2Hz for more than 11.5 seconds.
When there is rotation difference of wheels or there
is phase difference between front wheels and axles,
it is difficult to connect front wheels to front axles. The
blinking by 2Hz shows that shifting the transfer gear
or connecting the front wheels is in the middle of
operating. In above case, the indicator's blinking by
2Hz shows that connecting the front wheels is not
completed (because the indicator's blinking changes
to 4Hz when the shifting transfer gear is impossible.).
And removal of rotation or phase difference make
connecting the front wheels possible.
Solution 2: When vehicle is running, drive
straight ahead while accelerating and
decelerating. When vehicle is at a stop, move the
vehicle forward and backward from 2 to 3 meters.When switching from 4WD to 2WD
1.In case that the 4WD indicator continues blinking
by 2Hz .
The 4WD indicator continues blinking by 2Hz until
both shifting the transfer gear and disconnecting the
front wheels are completed when switching 4WD to
2WD. When driveline is loaded with torsional torque,
the shifting transfer gear and disconnecting front
wheels are impossible. In this case, removal of
torsional torque on driveline make the shifting
transfer gear and disconnecting front wheels
possible.
Solution 3: When vehicle is running, drive
straight ahead while accelerating and
decelerating. When vehicle is at a stop, move the
vehicle forward and backward from 2 to 3 meters.
2.In case that the 4WD indicator's blinking changes
from 2Hz to 4Hz.
Check the position of transfer lever. Is it at ª4Lº
position? In view of the shifting mechanism of
transfer, the gear shifting from 4WD to 2WD at ª4Lº
condition is impossible.
Solution 4: Push the 4WD switch to 4WD, shift the
transfer lever to ªHighº position and re±operate
the 4WD switch to 2WD.

DRIVE LINE CONTROL SYSTEM (TOD) 4B2±14
How to Clear The Trouble Code
The trouble codes saved to the control unit can be deleted
by the following procedure if the starter switch is being in
the OFF position.
1. Shift the transfer lever to the neutral position between
HIGH and 4L, and short-circuit the self-diagnostic
connector.
NOTE: The neutral position between HIGH and 4L refers
to the point that turns off the TOD indicator lamps.
(However, be sure to check the position before
short-circuiting the self-diagnostic connector.)
C07RW011
2. Turn on the starter switch while maintaining the state
of step 1, and step on the brake pedal five times within
five seconds from the first step on. (Note that ªfive
timesº includes the first step on). (The TOD indicator
lamps display the 4L mode whenever the brake pedal
is stepped on.)
3. If the conditions shown in steps 1 and 2 are met, clear
the trouble codes saved to the control unit. (After the
codes are completely deleted, the code 12 that
indicates the normal condition is continuously
displayed.)
Precautions on Diagnosis
Replacement of Control Unit
The control unit itself rarely fails. In most cases, the
harnesses have failed (e.q. short-circuit) to cause
secondary troubles. Other cases include that the cause
has been unknown due to intermittent occurrence of
troubles and the troubles are removed accidentally along
with replacement of control unit, resulting in misjudgment
of cause. Therefore, before replacing the control unit,
check the connector joints and whether the unspecified
current flows in the control unit due to short-circuit
between harnesses.Trouble Intermittently Observed
Troubles intermittently observed are mostly attributable
to temporary imperfect connection of harnesses and
connectors.
When such troubles are found, check the associated
circuit according to the following procedure.
1. Check whether improper connectors are plugged in
or connector terminals are completely engaged.
2. Check whether the terminals are deformed or
damaged. If yes, remove the deformation or damage
and connect the terminals securely.
3. It is likely that wires in the harness are falsely broken.
Therefore, in examination of failed harness circuit,
shake the harness for check to such extent that the
harness will not be damaged.
Test Run of Filed TOD Vehicle
If the TOD indicator lamps experienced faulty operation
even once in the past, the failed portion can be identified
by use of the procedure ªDiagnosis from Trouble Codesº
or ªTrouble Diagnosis Depending on The Status of TOD
Indicatorº. If the troubles that are only recognized as
abnormal phenomena of the vehicle by the driver are
observed, conduct the test run in the following procedure
to reproduce the faulty phenomena and diagnose the fault
for each phenomenon.
1. Start the engine, and check that the TOD indicator
lamps are turned on for about two seconds for initial
check; the CHECK lamp goes off; and the TOD
indicator lamps display the specified drive mode. (If
the CHECK lamp starts blinking, read the trouble
codes and identify the failed portion.)
2. While keeping the vehicle standstill, operate the 4WD
switch and shift the transfer lever to change the
modes: 2H mode"TOD mode"4L mode"TOD
mode"2H mode. Check that the TOD indicator
lamps correctly display the status whenever the
mode is changed. If the transition status is displayed
during the shift operation, run the vehicle a little to
complete shifting.
3. Slowly start the vehicle in the TOD mode, and add the
power to accelerate to at least 40 km/h and maintain
the speed for about two minutes. Apply the brake to
completely stop the vehicle. Repeat this test pattern
at least three times.
4. Turn the steering to the right end (or left end) in the
TOD mode, and slowly start the vehicle and make a
circle five times. Next, conduct the same test in the 2H
mode.
5. Slowly start the vehicle in the TOD mode, and
accelerate to at least 40 km/h. Keep the established
speed, carefully change the mode in the sequence
ªTOD mode"2H mode "TOD modeº while checking
that the shift is complete in each mode change. After
the test, apply the brake to completely stop the
vehicle.
6. Slowly start the vehicle in the TOD mode, and
accelerate to at least 40 km/h. Apply the brake
strongly so that the ABS works, and completely stop
the vehicle.
