GENERAL INFORMATION
The Variable Displacement Compressor (VDC) pro-
vides maximum A/C performance under most condi-
tions. It is designed to operate continuously without
any cycling of the compressor clutch. The compressor
has a variable angle wobble plate with six axially
oriented cylinders. During vehicle A/C system operation, the compres-
sor will change its displacement to match the vehi-
cles A/C cooling demands. When the A/C system
needs more cooling capacity, the compressor will in-
crease its pumping capacity. This is done by increas-
ing the wobble plate angle to increase the piston
stroke. When the A/C system cooling demand is low,
the compressor will decrease its pumping capacity by
reducing the piston pumping stroke. The low cooling
capacity will prevent evaporator from freezing.
COMPRESSOR IDENTIFICATION
The Variable Displacement Compressor can be
identified by the location of the high pressure line. It
is mounted to the end of the compressor case (Fig. 1).
COMPRESSOR DIAGNOSIS
(1) Verify that refrigerant system is at full charge.
Refer to the Refrigerant Service Procedures section
in this Group. (2) Perform A/C Performance Test. Refer to Heater
and A/C Performance Test section in this Group. (3) If performance is not acceptable, perform ex-
pansion valve tests. Refer to Expansion Valve Tests
in this section. (4) If expansion valve test is correct, refer to the
Variable Displacement Compressor Diagnosis charts.
COMPRESSOR NOISE
Excessive noise that occurs when the air condition-
ing is being used, can be caused by:
² Loose bolts
² Mounting brackets
² Loose clutch
² Excessive high refrigerant system operating pres-
sure Verify compressor drive belt condition, proper re-
frigerant charge and head pressure before compressor
repair is performed. For noise diagnostic procedures, refer to the Com-
pressor Noise and Compressor Clutch Diagnosis
chart in this section.
COMPRESSOR CLUTCH INOPERATIVE
The air conditioning compressor clutch electrical
circuit is controlled by the engine controller. The
controller is located in the engine compartment out-
board of the battery. If the compressor clutch does not engage:
Verify refrigerant charge. Refer to Refrigerant Ser-
vice Procedures in this section. If the compressor clutch still does not engage:
Check for battery voltage at the differential pres-
sure cut-off switch located on the expansion valve. If
voltage is not detected, refer to: (1) Group 8W, Wiring Diagrams.

(2) The appropriate Powertrain Diagnostic Proce-
dures Manual for diagnostic information. (3) The Compressor Clutch DiagnosisÐVariable
Displacement Compressor chart in this section. (4) On 2.2 L Turbo III engines, check for battery
voltage at the Thermal Limiter Switch located on the
compressor. If voltage is found at the cut-off and/or thermal
limiter switch, reconnect switch. Then check for bat-
tery voltage between the compressor clutch connector
terminals. If voltage is detected, perform A/C Clutch Coil
Tests. Refer to Clutch Coil Tests in this section.
CLUTCH COIL TESTS
(1) Verify battery state of charge. (Test indicator
in battery should be green). (2) Connect an ammeter (0-10 ampere scale) in se-
ries with the clutch coil terminal. Use a volt meter
(0-20 volt scale) with clip leads measuring voltage
across the battery and A/C clutch. (3) With A/C control in A/C mode and blower at
low speed, start the engine and run at normal idle. (4) The A/C clutch should engage immediately and
the clutch voltage should be within two volts of the
battery voltage. If the A/C clutch does not engage,
test the fusible link. (5) The A/C clutch coil is acceptable if the current
draw is 2.0 to 3.7 amperes at 11.5-12.5 volts at clutch
coil. This is with the work area temperature at 21ÉC
(70ÉF). If voltage is more than 12.5 volts, add electri-
cal loads by turning on electrical accessories until
voltage reads below 12.5 volts. If coil current reads zero, the coil is open and
should be replaced. If the ammeter reading is 4 am-
peres or more, the coil is shorted and should be re-
placed. If the coil voltage is not within two volts of
the battery voltage, test clutch coil feed circuit for
excessive voltage drop.
COMPRESSOR
The A/C compressor may be removed and posi-
tioned without discharging the refrigerant system.
Discharging is not necessary if removing the A/C
compressor clutch/coil assembly, engine, cylinder
head, or generator.
WARNING: REFRIGERANT PRESSURES REMAIN HIGH
EVEN THOUGH THE ENGINE MAY BE TURNED OFF.
BEFORE REMOVING A FULLY CHARGED COMPRES-
SOR, REVIEW THE SAFETY PRECAUTIONS AND
WARNINGS SECTION IN THIS GROUP. DO NOT TWIST
OR KINK THE REFRIGERANT LINES WHEN REMOV-
ING A FULLY CHARGED COMPRESSOR. SAFETY
GLASSES MUST BE WORN.

(6 mm) bolts, along with 2 wrenches, to the threaded
holes in the armature plate (Fig. 1). Remove com-
pressor shaft nut. (3) Tap the armature plate with a plastic and re-
move plate and shim(s).
CAUTION: Do not use screwdrivers between the ar-
mature plate assembly and rotor-pulley to remove
the armature plate. This may damage the armature
plate assembly.
24 - 32 HEATING AND AIR CONDITIONING Ä
Page 2338 of 2438

(8) With the front clutch plate assembly tight
against the shims, measure the air gap between ar-
mature plate and rotor-pulley face with feeler gauges
(Fig. 4). The air gap should be between 0.35 and 0.65
mm (0.013 and 0.025 inch). If proper air gap is not
obtained, add or subtract shims until desired air gap
is obtained.
(9) Install compressor shaft nut. Tighten nut to
17.5 N Im (155 in. lbs.) torque.
Shims may compress after tightening shaft bolt.
Check air gap in four or more places to verify if air
gap is still correct. Spin pulley for final check. (10) Install the compressor onto the mount.
CLUTCH/COIL BREAK-IN
After a new clutch/coil has been installed, cycle the
A/C clutch 20 times (5 sec. on and 5 sec. off). During
this procedure, run engine at 1500-2000 rpm and set
the A/C on the HIGH mode. This procedure (burnish-
ing) will seat the opposing friction surfaces and pro-
vide a higher clutch torque capability.
THERMAL LIMITER SWITCH
The Thermal Limiter Switch (Fig. 5) is bolted to
the side of the compressor case. It measures compres-
sor surface temperature and is used as a safety de-
vice to cut battery voltage to the compressor clutch
coil. This is performed if compressor case tempera-
ture is excessive. This switch is NOT USEDto cycle the clutch coil.
After the compressor has cooled to normal operating
temperature, the switch will reset.
DIAGNOSIS
The switch can remain bolted to the compressor for
testing. (1) Disconnect the wiring connectors from the ther-
mal limiter switch. (2) Using an ohmmeter, check for continuity be-
tween the two wiring leads. If continuity is not de-
tected, replace switch. Also check for possible
compressor overheating.
² Switch cut-out (no continuity) occurs at 125ÉC
6 3ÉC (255ÉF 637ÉF).
² Switch cuts back in (continuity) at 110ÉC 66ÉC
(230ÉF 642ÉF).
REMOVAL
The refrigerant system can remained fully charged
for thermal limiter switch replacement. After removing the thermal limiter switch, always
replace with a new unit. (1) Disconnect wiring connectors from switch.
(2) Remove the bolt retaining the switch holding
clamp and the switch to the side of the compressor
(Fig. 6). (3) Pry the switch from compressor case with a
screwdriver.
CLEANING
Remove silicone filler from the socket and thor-
oughly clean the socket with thinners.
INSTALLATION
(1) Place the new thermal limiter switch so that
the flat copper surface faces upward. (2) Apply the specified silicone filler (KE 347 RTV)
to the flat copper surface until the surface is evenly
covered. When silicone is applied, apply only from
tube and not by hand. (3) Install the thermal limiter switch into the
socket and secure it with the thermal protector (lim-
iting switch) fixing plate and bolt. Tighten the bolt
