SERVICE HOSES
Be certain that the service hoses display the markings described
(colored hose with black stripe). All hoses must include positive shut-
off devices (either manual or automatic) near the end of the hoses
opposite the manifold gauge.
SERVICE COUPLERS
Never attempt to connect HFC-134a (R-134a) service couplers to a
CFC-12 (R-12) A/C system. The HFC-134a (R-134a) couplers will
not properly connect to the CFC-12 (R-12) system. However, if an
improper connection is attempted, discharging and contamination
may occur.
REFRIGERANT WEIGHT SCALE
Verify that no refrigerant other than HFC-134a (R-134a) and speci-
fied lubricants have been used with the scale. If the scale controls
refrigerant flow electronically, the hose fitting must be 1/2
″ -16
ACME.

TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS

TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS FOR UNUSUAL PRESSURE
Whenever system’s high and/or low side pressure(s) is/are unusual, diagnose using a manifold gauge. The
marker above the gauge scale in the following tables indicates the standard (usual) pressure range. Since the
standard (usual) pressure, however, differs from vehicle to vehicle, refer to above table (Ambient air tempera-
ture-to-operating pressure table).
Both High- and Low-pressure Sides are Too High
High-pressure Side is Too High and Low-pressure Side is Too Low
Gauge indication Refrigerant cycle Probable cause Corrective action
Both high- and low-pressure sides
are too high.The pressure returns to nor-
mal soon after water is
splashed on the condenser.Excessive refrigerant charge
in refrigeration cycle.Reduce refrigerant until speci-
fied pressure is obtained.
Air suction by cooling fan is
insufficient.Insufficient condenser cooling
performance.
↓
1. Condenser fins are clogged.
2. Improper fan rotation of
cooling fan.

Clean condenser.

Check and repair cooling fan
if necessary.

Low-pressure pipe is not
cold.

When compressor is
stopped high-pressure
value quickly drops by
approximately 196 kPa
(1.96 bar, 2 kg/cm
2 , 28
psi). It then decreases
gradually thereafter.Poor heat exchange in con-
denser.
(After compressor operation
stops, high-pressure
decreases too slowly.)
↓
Air in refrigeration cycle.Evacuate repeatedly and
recharge system.
Engine tends to overheat.Engine cooling systems mal-
function.Check and repair each engine
cooling system.

An area of the low-pres-
sure pipe is colder than
areas near the evaporator
outlet.

Low-pressure pipe is
sometimes covered with
frost.

Excessive liquid refrigerant
on low-pressure side.

Excessive refrigerant dis-
charge flow.

Expansion valve is open a
little compared with the
specification.
↓
Improper expansion valve
adjustment.Replace expansion valve.

TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS

Sunload Sensor CircuitBJS000GE
COMPONENT DESCRIPTION
Sunload Sensor
The sunload sensor is located on the passenger side defroster grille.
It detects sunload entering through windshield by means of a photo
diode. The sensor converts the sunload into a current value which is
then input into the unified meter and A/C amp.
SUNLOAD INPUT PROCESS
The unified meter and A/C amp. also includes a processing circuit which averages the variations in detected
sunload over a period of time. This prevents drastic swings in the ATC system operation due to small or quick
variations in detected sunload.
For example, consider driving along a road bordered by an occasional group of large trees. The sunload
detected by the sunload sensor will vary whenever the trees obstruct the sunlight. The processing circuit aver-
ages the detected sunload over a period of time, so that the (insignificant) effect of the trees momentarily
obstructing the sunlight does not cause any change in the ATC system operation. On the other hand, shortly
after entering a long tunnel, the system will recognize the change in sunload, and the system will react accord-
ingly.
DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE FOR SUNLOAD SENSOR
SYMPTOM: Sunload sensor circuit is open or shorted. (25 or −25 is
indicated on unified meter and A/C amp. as a result of performing
self-diagnosis STEP-2.)
1. CHECK VOLTAGE BETWEEN SUNLOAD SENSOR AND GROUND
1. Disconnect sunload sensor connector.
2. Turn ignition switch ON.
3. Check voltage between sunload sensor harness connector M61
terminal 1 and ground.

A/C and AV Switch Self-Diagnosis FunctionBKS0020P
Performing self-diagnosis makes it possible to check operation of A/C and AV switch indicator (LED) and other
switches.
STARTING THE SELF-DIAGNOSIS MODE
1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
2. With three switches (DEF, REC/FRE and MODE) pressed simul-
taneously, turn the ignition switch to ACC.
DIAGNOSIS FUNCTION
The following are checked:

All the indicators (LED) in the A/C and AV switch.

Continuity of the switches by sounding the buzzer when pressing the A/C and AV switch.
NOTE:

Indicators (LED) of REC/FRE switch change to “FRE” → “REC” → “FRE” every time the REC/FRE switch
is pressed. (These two do not turn on at the same time.)

Impossible to check rear window defogger switch operation (No beep sound even under normal status).
EXITING THE SELF-DIAGNOSIS MODE

Turn ignition switch OFF.
