ON-VEHICLE SERVICE
SIGHT GLASS REFRIGERANT LEVEL
TEST
M1552008400378
1. Start the engine.
2. Operate the air-conditioner, and then set the
temperature to maximum cooling.
3. Hold the engine speed at 1500 r/min.
4. Check the refrigerant level (bubble state) through
the sight glass.
CAUTION
Use the low-pressure service valve.
NOTE: Use the refrigerant recovery station to
charge the specified refrigerant because you can
not calculate the amount of the refrigerant
properly with the sight glass.
MAGNETIC CLUTCH TESTM1552008500405
1. Disconnect the magnetic clutch connector to the
magnetic clutch.
2. Connect positive battery voltage directly to the
connector for the magnetic clutch.3. If the magnetic clutch is normal, there will be a
"click." If the pulley and armature do not make
contact ("click"), there is a malfunction.

DUAL PRESSURE SWITCH CHECKM1552010400320
1. Remove the dual pressure switch connector and
connect the high/low pressure side terminals
located on the harness side as shown in the
illustration..
2. Install a gauge manifold to the high-pressure side
service valve of the refrigerant line. (Refer to
P.55-98, P.55-99.)
3. When the high/low pressure sides of the dual
pressure switch are at operation pressure (ON)
the resistance should less than two ohms
between the terminals. If open circuit, replace the
switch. Items State
Insufficient Many bubbles are seen.
If refrigerant is extremely
low, it appears white.
Sufficient or excess
refrigerantNo bubbles are seen.

HEATER, AIR CONDITIONER AND VENTILATION55-73
PERFORMANCE TEST M1552001400355
1. The vehicles to be tested should be in a place that
is not in direct sunlight.
2. Close the high and low-pressure valve of the
gauge manifold.
3. Connect the charging hose (blue) to the
low-pressure valve and connect the charging
hose (red) to the high-pressure valve of the gauge
manifold.
CAUTION
•To connect the quick joint, press section A
firmly against the service valve until a click is
heard.
•When connecting, run your hand along the
hose while pressing to ensure that there are
no bends in the hose.
4. Install the quick joint (for low-pressure) to the
charging hose (blue), and connect the quick joint
(for high-pressure) to the charging hose (red).NOTE: The high-pressure service valve is on the
A/C pipe and the low-pressure service valve is on
the suction hose.
5. Connect the quick joint (for low-pressure) to the
low-pressure service valve and connect the quick
joint (for high-pressure) to the high-pressure
service valve.
6. Start the engine.
7. Set the A/C controls as follows:
•A/C switch: A/C − ON position
•Mode selection: FACE position
•Temperature control: MAXIMUM COOLING
position
•Air selection: RECIRCULATION position
•Blower switch: "4" (Fast) position
8. Keep engine speed to idling speed with A/C clutch
engaged.
9. Engine should be warmed up with doors and all
windows opened.
10.Insert a thermometer in the centre air outlet and
operate the engine for 20 minutes.
NOTE: If the clutch cycles, take the reading before
the clutch disengages.
11.Note the discharge air temperature.
