(1) A negative-characteristic thermistor is employed
for the air-therm0 sensor and the air-inlet sensorin order to convert the ambient temperature at
the sensor part to resistance.
The sensor power-supply voltage
(5V) of the air
conditioner control unit is applied to each sen-
sor.
(2) The compressor operation mode changes (fromOFF to ECONO to A/C...) each time the air
conditioner switch is pressed. When the air
conditioner switch is pressed in to the first step,the mode is changed to the ECONO mode (the
indicator illuminates in orange, and the voltage
at terminal 4 of the air conditioner switch
becomes Bv.
When pressed in to the second step, the mode
is changed to the air conditioner mode (the
indicator illuminates in green), and the voltage at
terminal 2 of the air conditioner switch becomes
Bv.Bv: Battery voltage
(3) The output (terminal 4) of the air conditioner

24-24 HEATERS AND AIR CONDITIONING - Service Adjustment Procedures
COMPRESSOR NOISENUFIABWhen investigating an air conditioning related noise, you must
first know the conditions when the noise occurs. These
conditions are: weather, vehicle speed, in gear or neutral,
engine temperature or any other special conditions.
Noises that develop during air conditioning operation can oftenbe misleading. For example: what sounds like a failed front
bearing or connecting rod, may be caused by loose bolts, nuts,mounting brackets, or a loose clutch assembly. Verify acces-
sory drive belt tension (power steering, or alternator).
Improper accessory drive belt tension can cause a misleading
noise when the compressor is engaged and little or no noise
when the compressor is disengaged.
Drive belts are speed sensitive. That is, at different engine
speeds, and depending upon belt tension, belts can develop
unusual noises that are often mistaken for mechanical prob-
lems within the compressor.
Adjustment Procedures
(1) Select a quiet area for testing. Duplicate conditions as
much as possible. Switch compressor on and off several
times to clearly identify compressor noise.
To duplicate high ambient conditions (high head pressure),restrict air flow through condenser. Install manifold gauge
set to make sure discharge pressure doesn’t exceed 2,070
kPa (300 psi).
(2) Tighten all compressor mounting bolts, clutch mounting
bolt, and compressor drive belt. Check to assure clutch coilis tight (no rotation or wobble).
(3) Check refrigerant hoses for rubbing or interference that cancause unusual noises.
(4) Check refrigerant charge (See “Charging the System”).
(5) Recheck compressor noise as in Step 1.
(6) If noise still exists, loosen compressor mounting bolts and
retorque. Repeat Step 1.
(7) If noise continues, replace compressor and repeat Step 1.

(3) Check to be sure that the idlig speed becomes the standardvalue when the air conditioner switch is switched ON and
the air conditioner is activated.
